I M Not Talking lyrics

Young)
EP version
I`m not talking,
Well that`s all I got to say.
Used to think I knew it,
Man I sure outgrew it.
Things like idle chatter,
Ain`t the things that matter,
That`s one thing I can do without.

I`m not talking,
Well that`s all I got to say.
Things I say at midnight,
I ain`t gonna say `em in daylight.
I reached the final conclusion,
And all this persecution,
Don`t call me, baby, I`ll call you.

I`m not talking,
Well that`s all I got to say.
Things I say at midnight,
I ain`t gonna say `em in daylight.
I reached the final conclusion,
And all this persecution,
That`s one thing I can do without.

I`m not talking,
Well that`s all I got to say.
If I said things were awful,
It might just be unlawful.
If I said things were splendid,
You might just be offended.
That`s one thing I can do without.

BBC version
I`m not talking,
Well that`s all I got to say.
If I said things were splendid,
Our mom might be offended.
If I said things were awful,
It may just be unlawful.
That`s one thing I can do without.

I`m not talking,
Well that`s all I got to say.
Used to think I knew it,
Man I sure outgrew it.
Things like idle chatter,
Ain`t the things that matter,
Don`t call me baby, I`ll call you.

I`m not talking,
Well that`s all I got to say.
If I said things at midnight,
I ain`t gonna say `em in daylight.
I reached the final conclusion,
And all this persecution,
Don`t call me, baby, I`ll call you
