Better Left Unsaid

about

Recorded on a Fostex X15 four-track in South Berwick, Maine in early 1991.

lyrics

************************
The less said, the better, sometimes
Things are better left unsaid,
And when you flap your mouth like that
It can be seen there's nothing in your head.
If you can't say anything nice, and you can't,
You'd better just shut your trap.
The less said, the better when all
You talk is such total crap.
We're tired of hearing it.
We're tired of hearing it.
Better to be thought a fool than to
Open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Seems when you move your lips
Stupidity comes tumbling out.
If you can't say anything good, and you cant,
You'd better just shut your hole.
The less said, the better when it's
Obvious you've lost control.
We're tired of hearing it.
We're so tired of hearing it.
We're tired of hearing it.
So gosh-darned tired of hearing it.

(1991 Nimyonta Music)
