The Quiet One

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

What kind of drugs have you done tonight?

Cause you've got a face like a lava light,

Gong bell and bats in the belfry banging,

Me I can't ever tell what it is that you're thinking,

She gets upset by the setting sun,

I like you my little quiet one,

I like you,

I like when you're quiet,

I like you,

I like when you're quiet,

Well chili chow chowder that's the hardest partest,

And I never knew that you were a performance artist,

There's a mean streak in your flower basket,

I had a question, but I could never ask it,

Me I'm as friendly as they come,

But I like you my little quiet one,

I like you,

I like when you're quiet,

I like you,

I like when you're quiet,

And I'm gonna tie you up,

And then cradle you,

To keep you here for me my dear,

I wanna, I wanna make you a part of my,

Collection but I,

Won't disturb you or wonder,

Or fumble or touch you,

No matter how bad this never ends,

This never ends,

So join in the circle of our conversation,

Do you need to know me to know my desperation,

I've given up the clothes and the chairs and the house,

But I need someone who cares if I'm not around,

You can measure my language by the tongue,

But me I like you my little quiet one,

I like you,

Like when you're quiet.
