Matters at hand need to be addressed
But you and I need to take a rest to
Leave the lines open for the ones
With information and not for father's sons

You wouldn't listen to someone else
You thought you'd tackle this one yourself but
As you spoke did it not occur
There could be someone to whom you could defer?

When it's important and you're not familiarized
Silence trumps lies

Oh - Quiet is something to keep and be
Oh - Would it kill you to wait and see?
Oh - It's hard to hear any expertise
Oh - Over you giving out guarantees

Where there is proof and yet the loudest voice denies
Silence trumps lies

Nothing was known but so much was said
Once again in over your head but
Words still came fast and furious
You've never been accused of being curious

Put your pride and vanity away
Tomorrow could be way worse than today so
Stop saying the things you can't unsay

Just count to ten
Don't be too quick to criticize

Where do you stand
When you say yes and
Then improvise?

All you have told us
Is: it pays to advertise
And that
Silence trumps lies
