You Don't Tell Me
You don't teach a kid to drink milk
Or a Macrol to swim in the sea
And when the magic R approaches lover
You don't tell me
You don't teach the ocean to roll
Or an English man how to drink tea
And when affection starts to take me over
You don't tell me
Only yesterday, I was green as may
Now I have to say I'm wise to certain symptoms
The young have an option on youth
I'm as young as I ever will be
I really understand that moment of truth
You don't tell me
Only yesterday, I was green as may
Now I have to say I'm wise to certain symptoms
The young have an option on youth
I'm as young as I ever will be
I really understand that momment of truth
You don't tell me
Go tell your brotha
Go tell you sista
But don't...
You don't tell me
Or a Macrol to swim in the sea
And when the magic R approaches lover
You don't tell me
You don't teach the ocean to roll
Or an English man how to drink tea
And when affection starts to take me over
You don't tell me
Only yesterday, I was green as may
Now I have to say I'm wise to certain symptoms
The young have an option on youth
I'm as young as I ever will be
I really understand that moment of truth
You don't tell me
Only yesterday, I was green as may
Now I have to say I'm wise to certain symptoms
The young have an option on youth
I'm as young as I ever will be
I really understand that momment of truth
You don't tell me
Go tell your brotha
Go tell you sista
But don't...
You don't tell me
