You're sitting there yakkin' right in my face I guess I'm gonna have to put you in your place Y'know if silence was golden You couldn't raise a dime Because your mind is on vacation And your mouth is working overtime You're quoting figures, Dropping names, Telling stories about the dames You're over laughin' when things ain't funny You try'n to sound like you're Big money Y'know if talk was criminal, You'd lead a life of crime Because your mind is on vacation And your mouth is working overtime Life is short. Talk is cheap. Don't be making promises that you can't keep If you don't like this little song I'm singing Grin and bear it All I can say is if the shoe fits wear it And if you must keep talking Please try to make it rhyme Because your mind is on vacation And your mouth is working overtime Because your mind is on vacation Your mind is on vacation
