Quiet

Put on your face
Know your place
Shut up and smile
Don't spread your legs
I could do that

But no one knows me, no one ever will
If I don't say something, if I just lie still
Would I be that monster, scare them all away
If I let them hear what I have to say

I can't keep quiet, no-oh-oh-oh-oh
I can't keep quiet, no-oh-oh-oh-oh
A one woman riot, no-oh-oh-oh-oh

I can't keep quiet
For anyone

Not anymore

'Cause no one knows me, no one ever will
If I don't say something, take that dry blue pill
They may see that monster, they may run away
But I have to do this

I can't keep quiet, no-oh-oh-oh-oh
I can't keep quiet, no-oh-oh-oh-oh
A one woman riot, no-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh, I can't keep quiet
(There'll be someone who understands)
There'll be someone who understands
(Must be someone who'll understand)

Let it out, let it out
Let it out now
There'll be someone who understands
Let it out, let it out
Let it out now

I can't keep quiet, no-oh-oh-oh-oh
No, I can't keep quiet, no-oh-oh-oh-oh
I can't keep quiet, oh-no
No, I won't keep quiet
