"Your Mind Is On Vacation" lyrics

"Your Mind Is On Vacation"

You been sittin' there and yakkin' right in my face
You comin' on exactly like you own the place
You know if silence was golden
You couldn't raise a dime
Cause your mind is on vacation and your mouth is workin' overtime

You been quotin' figures and droppin' names
You tellin' stories and you playing games
You're overlaughin' when things ain't funny
You tryin' to sound like you don't need money
Your talk was criminal, you'd lead a life of crime
Cause your mind is on vacation and your mouth is workin' overtime

Well, if you don't like the words to the song just grin and bear it
All I can say is if the shoe fits wear it
If you must keep talkin', please, try to make it rhyme
Cause your mind is on vacation and your mouth is workin' overtime...
