Words

Daddy saw a rainbow
Where mamma saw a colored trap
Mamma says she's leaving
Daddy hears her comeback

Rattle, rattle, rattle
Battling the whole day through
Sayin' what they don't mean
Mixing up a word or two

Who said that I said that you said you'd go
'Cause deep inside I know

It's not the words
It's the way you say 'em
It's not the words
It's where you lay 'em

It doesn't really help us
To stand behind blue and black
'Cause we're caught between the rails of a train
That ain't rollin' back

Battle, battle, battle
Sayin' things that we don't feel
Tryin' to get a hold on something
That is right and real

Who said that I said that you said you'd go
'Cause deep inside I know

It's not the words
It's the way you say 'em
It's not the words
It's where you lay 'em

Who said that I said that you said you'd go
'Cause deep inside I know

It's not the words
It's the way you use 'em
It's not the words
It's how you abuse 'em

It's not the words
It's the way you say 'em
Not the words
It's where you lay 'em

Not the words
