The Quiet One Lyrics

 (John Entwistle)
 
 Everybody calls me the quiet one
 You can see but you can't hear me
 Everybody calls me the quiet one
 You can try but you can't get near me
 I ain't never had the gift of gab
 But I can't talk with my eyes
 When words fail me you won't nail me
 My eyes can tell you lies
 
 Still waters run deep so be careful I don't drown you
 You've got nothing to hear I've got nothing to say
 Sticks and stones may break your bones
 But names can never down you
 It only takes two words to blow you away
 
 Everybody calls me the quiet one
 But you just don't understand
 You can't listen you won't hear me
 With your head stuck in the sand
 I ain't never had time for words that don't rhyme
 My headd is in a cloud
 I ain't quiet - everybody else is too loud
 
 Still waters run deep so be careful I don't drown you
 You've got nothing to hear I've got nothing to say
 Sticks and stones may break my bones
 But names can never down you
 It only takes two words to blow you away.
