about

I struggled with the lyrics and vocals for (Shhh) Don't Tell for a very long time. Probably three complete drafts. Lines and lines recorded and then thrown away. I was about to abandon it. I'm glad I stuck with it - it's one of the fastest, punchiest songs I've ever written. Oh, and the second rhythm guitar in the second verse was a complete accident. It wasn't supposed to go there at all, but it worked, so I left it in.

lyrics

Baby, put your clothes on

It's time to go home

Cause I've done some thinking lately

And I really think I'd rather sleep alone



It's really nothing personal, babe, but it's you

Oh, I'mma make this short and sweet

And girl, when I'm done

You had best retreat



Whoa, baby we are through

Baby, it's all you

Babe, it can't be me

Baby, can't you see?



You and me was fun for a while

But it died

And I'm sick of tagging along with you

When there's other places I'd rather ride



Baby, cut your losses

It's time to move on

And girl, I ain't gonna say this again

Step off, get back, I ain't your friend



Whoa, baby we are through

Baby, it's all you

Babe, it can't be me

Baby, can't you see?

There is nothing I can do

It's all up to you

Baby, don't you know?

I've gotta let you go



You think you've got me all figured out

But I'm gonna cut you down

No, baby, you can't fight it

And those times you strung my pride up and down

Well, I got some news for you

And I don't think you're gonna like it



I said a-one, a-two, baby fuck you

Two, three, baby fuck me



Whoa, baby we are through

Baby, it's all you

Babe, it can't be me

Baby, can't you see?
