Whatever you say, say nothing When you talk about you know what For if you know who could hear you You know what you'd get For they'd take you off to you know where For you wouldn't know how long So for you know who's sake Don't let anyone hear you singing this song
And you all know what I'm speaking of When I mention you know what And I think it's very dangerous to even mention that For the other ones are always near Although you may not see And if anyone asks who told you that Please don't mention me
And you all know who I'm speaking of When I mention you know who And if you know who could hear me You know what he'd do So if you don't see me around You'll know why I'm away And if anyone asks you where I've gone Here's what you must say
Well that's enough about so and so Not to mention such and such I think I'll end my song now Sure I've already said too much For the less you say, the less you hear And the less you'll go astray And the less you think, the less you do And the more you'll hear them say
