Letra de Why Say Anything Nice?

Why'd you put your dress shoes on if you didn't come to dance? Frankly, I'd be on my own if I thought I'd stand a chance Why'd you take your glasses off if you don't intend to fight? Frankly, I'd be on my own if I thought I'd last the night No screaming or fighting, no scratching or biting We're just shaking hands goodnight Sullen and silent, emotionally violent I waited a while and nothing, nothing Why say anything nice when you can say nothing at all? Why say anything nice when you can say nothing at all? Why'd you put your backpack on if you won't just take a hike? Frankly, I'd be out the door if you hadn't sold my bike No fencing or sparring, no bruising or scarring And no 'au revoiring' yet No communication, just alienation I've tried to be patient but nothing, nothing Why say anything nice when you can say nothing at all? Why say anything nice? Say anything nice, a simple device That makes everything beautiful just ordinary Nice can come at a price, forever imbued with all this boredom Sacrifice can only suffice when something is beautiful After all the resentment, all the discontentment The flowers you sent meant nothing, nothing Why say anything nice when you can say nothing at all? Why say anything nice when you can say nothing at all? (Why say anything nice?...) You can say nothing at all Woo-hoo-hoo Nothing at all Woo-hoo-hoo You can say nothing at all Woo-hoo-hoo Nothing at all
