"Suffer In Silence" lyrics

I bought some pumps at Gemima's
But they were rubbing and making me sore
I just carried on smiling
'Cause everybody dug the shoes that I wore
I can suffer in silence
If it means that I can blend with the crowd
Suckin' suffer in silence
But I wouldn't want to say it too loud

They'll bill keen down at the bistro
And I was broke it was the end of the week
I just had coffee whilst you stuffed your face
We went Dutch without so much as a squeak
I can suffer in silence
Suck it in and bottle it up
Suckin' suffer in silence
As you keep me staring aghast

Every night I retire to the same chair
By a phone that's attached to the wall
And I hope that no one will call
I'm not waiting for an invitation
I'm not waiting for horrible news
But the other shoe to fall

I can suffer in silence
If it means that I can blend with the crowd
Suckin' suffer in silence
But I wouldn't want to say it too loud

Every night I retire to the same chair
By a phone that's attached to the wall
And I hope that no one will call
I'm not waiting for an invitation
I'm not waiting for horrible news
Just the other shoe to fall
