Don´t say a word Even in the classroom Not a dickie bird Unlike other children She´s seen and never heard
She´s given up talking Don´t say a word
You see her in the playground Standing on her own Everybody wonders Why she´s all alone Someone made her angry Someone´s got her scared She´s given up talking Don´t say a word
Ah but when she comes home It´s yap-a-yap-yap Words are running freely Like the water from a tap Her brothers and her sisters Can´t get a word in edgeways
But when she´s back at school again She goes into a daze
Ah but when she comes home It´s yap-a-yap-yap Words are running freely Like the water from a tap Her brothers and her sisters Can´t get a word in edgeways But when she´s back at school again She goes into a daze
She´s given up talking Don´t say a word Even in the classroom Not a dickie bird Unlike other children She´s seen and never heard
