Behind our backs you talk
Nose in the air strut when you walk
Nothing will assuage the pain of your mother never loving you
Do you think before you speak?
Unfounded words that you preach,
Won't do well to mask all of your insecurities

Have you ever heard that talk is cheap?
So talk away, so talk away
What good are words if you can't back up the things you say?
Have you ever heard that talk is cheap?
So talk away, so talk away
What good are words if you can't back up the things you say?

So Now you're at the top
Look at all the friends you've got
Can't take back the things you've said
Now everyone has gone away
I can't take it anymore
Hey, hey, hey,
Run your mouth puff your chest
But in the end what is it all good for?

Have you ever heard that talk is cheap?
So talk away, so talk away
What good are words if you can't back up the things you say?
Have you ever heard that talk is cheap?
So talk away, so talk away
What good are words if you can't back up the things you say?

Eye to eye!
Fist to face!
What's that I can't hear you now, your jaw seems out of place

Have you ever heard that talk is cheap?
So talk away, so talk away
What good are words if you can't back up the things you say?
Have you ever heard that talk is cheap?
So talk away, so talk away
What good are words if you can't back up the things you say?
