Lyrics Our Lips Are Sealed - Matthew Sweet, Susanna Hoffs

Our Lips Are Sealed

Can you hear them
They talk about us
Telling lies
Well that’s no surprise
Can you see them
See right through them
They have no shield
No secrets to reveal
It doesn’t matter what they say
In the jealous games people play
Our lips are sealed
Careless talk
Through paper walls
We can’t stop them
Only laugh at them
Spreading rumors
So far from true
Dragged up from the underworld
Just like some precious pearl
It doesn’t matter what they say
In the jealous games people play
Our lips are sealed
Pay no mind to what they say
It doesn’t matter anyway
Our lips are sealed
There’s a weapon
We must use
In our defense
Silence
When you look at them
Look right through them
That’s when they’ll disappear
That’s when you’ll be feared
Hush, my darling
Don’t you cry
Quiet, angel
Forget their lies
