You sitting here and yakking
Right in my face
Yes I'm gonna have to put you
In your place
If silence was golden
You couldn't raise a dime, no
Because your mind is on vacation
And your mouth is working overtime
You quoting figures
And dropping names
You telling old damn stories
About all your days
You know you're overlaughing
When things ain't funny
You trying to sound like you've got
The big money
You know if talk was criminal
You'd lead a life of crime
Because your mind is on vacation
And your mouth is working overtime
You know that life is short
And talk is cheap
Don't be making promises
That you can't keep
You don't like this little song I'm singing
Just grin and bear it
All I can say is
If the shoe fits wear it
And if you must keep talking
Please try to make it rhyme
Because your mind is on vacation
And your mouth is working overtime
Your mind is on vacation, baby
Your mind is on vacation
Yes, your mind is on vacation
Yeah, on vacation
Well, your mind is on vacation
And your mouth is really really really
Really working overtime
