Lyrics

Take us down and all apart Cherry tree Lay us out on the table You're sharp alright But no one is asking to leave it alone Leave it alone Can we? No one is asking to leave it alone Leave it alone Can we? Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Don't look at me I'm only breathing Don't look at me I'm indiscreet Don't look at me I'm only breathing Don't look at me I'm indiscreet You're sharp alright But no one is asking to leave it alone Leave it alone Can we? No one is asking to leave it alone Leave it alone Can we? Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Can we show a little discipline? Can we show a little discipline? Can we? Can we? Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips Can we show a little discipline? Can we show a little discipline? Can we? Can we? Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships Loose lips sink ships
