Please Be Quiet


Loud noises

Shouldn’t be as annoying

And constantly trying

Denying the fact

That I would rather be crying

Or dying

 

Rather than listening to you

Speak

 

Mozart is much more of a friend

Then you’ll ever be

You’ll talk forever,

And it really annoys me.

 

I know you think you’re smart,

With your fancy, big fat words,

But you’re just someone who gets on my nerves,

Oh, lord,

I don’t even know where to start.

 

I understand your political views,

And that’s not the point of this,

I can’t just go and sing the blues,

So it will be you that I will diss.

 

Yet you constantly put your actions over mine,

And it annoys me so,

You act like saying “shut up” is such a crime,

I don’t even know where to stop,

I wish that you would please just go.

Constantly deciding how to sound sort of like Lin-Manuel Miranda.
