Kinks - Quiet Life текст песни

Somethings happenin but Im just gonna turn a blind eye.

If I see no evil, ask no questions, and I hear no lies.

Cant communicate with minds that are small,

With some people its like talkin to the wall

And a fellow who walks away,

Lives to battle another day.

And Ive really got no appetite

For a fight,

Not tonight.

All I want is a quiet life.

Anything for a quiet life.

No ambition to rock the boat

When I can just stay afloat.

Be content with a quiet life

All I want is a quiet life.

Anything for a quiet life.

Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil at all.

Confidentially, between these walls,

Im on top of it all.

Id rather have em think Im deaf, dumb, and blind

Than aggravation every time I speak my mind

Keep _________ at a quiet life.

Anything for a quiet life.

I could easily blow my top,

Start a row,

But why start now?

Give your daddy a quiet life.

Give your mother a quiet life.

Anything for a quiet life.

[instrumental section]

Give your daddy a quiet life.

Give your mother a quiet life.

Anything for a quiet life.

Confidentially, between these walls,

Im on top of it all.
