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.
Behind our backs you talk
Nose in the air strut when you walk
Nothing will assuage the pain of your mother never loving you.
Do you think before you speak?
Unfounded words that you preach,
won't do well to mask all of your insecurities.
Have you ever heard that talk is cheap?
so talk away, so talk away
What good are words if you can't back up the things you say?
Have you ever heard that talk is cheap?
so talk away, so talk away
What good are words if you can't back up the things you say?
So Now you're at the top.
Look at all the friends you've got.
Can't take back the things you've said.
Now everyone has gone away.
I can't take it anymore
hey, hey, hey,
Run your mouth puff your chest
but in the end what is it all good for?
Have you ever heard that talk is cheap?
so talk away, so talk away
What good are words if you can't back up the things you say?
Have you ever heard that talk is cheap?
so talk away, so talk away
What good are words if you can't back up the things you say?
eye to eye!
fist to face!
what's that i can't hear you now, your jaw seems out of place.
Have you ever heard that talk is cheap?
so talk away, so talk away
What good are words if you can't back up the things you say?
Have you ever heard that talk is cheap?
so talk away, so talk away
What good are words if you can't back up the things you say?
