Shut Your Mouth

I wonder what it's like to finish a sentence
I wonder what it's like to finish a phrase
I wonder what it's like to finish my two cents
I wonder what it's like to not have to explain

Are you listening?
Can you hear me?

Shut your mouth and
Open up your mind
Maybe you will find
That the world doesn't revolve around you

Step on out and
Take a look inside
It might be time to try to
Shut your mouth and open up your mind

I wonder what it's like to hold your attention
I wonder what it's like to not hold your hand
I wonder what it's like to not hold the spoon up for you
Oh for you

Oh what would it be like to not hear suggestions?
What would it be like to not hear demands?
What would it be like to be heard the way I want to?
I want to

If you're listening
You coulda fooled me

Shut your mouth and
Open up your mind
Maybe you will find
That the world doesn't revolve around you

Step on out and
Take a look inside
It might be time to try to
Shut your mouth and open up your mind

Do you know what it's like for words to mean something?
Do you know what it's like to say nothing at all?
Do you know what it's like to not interrupt me?
Do you know what it's like to not speak with authority
About something that you really have no knowledge of?

Oh
Shut your mouth and
Open up your mind
Maybe you will find
That the world doesn't belong just to you, baby

Step on out and
Take a look inside
It might be time to try to
Shut your mouth and open up your mind
