Kept Mum Lyrics - Artist : Mighty Mighty Bosstones, The
If you grew up on this side, or in this section or this part
You learned to keep your mouth shut or did if you were smart And what you might be looking at might not be what you see If you believe your own eyes, tell your mouth to disagree He kept mum. He played dumb This is where he comes from He never cracked and he never crowed Despite the fact that the blood flowed I think I might have heard he said that he was at the scene He could have been a witness he's unwilling to come clean Or come forward or speak up tattle on or testify He's no snitch God Damn son of a bitch, stick a needle in his eye He kept mum. He played dumb This is where he comes from He never cracked and he never crowed Despite the fact that the blood flowed He kept it zipped. But lipped He never tripped and he never flipped It's where he's from and his pride showed He kept mum and respected the code He was in a packie where he worked part time When he was a victim of a violent crime Shot him on the spot within the light of day Customers standing there looked the other way One of several hollow points is how he lost his jaw That's not how it happened, and what they say they saw I hear his wheelchair is from the second shot Could be true for all they knew they say that they forgot To clarify its cut and dry it's pretty much expected If you grew up here you're well aware, that the code must be respected The code must be respected The code must be respected The code must be respected |
