Talk is cheap, and I should know I've given my everything, and it wasn't close People mean well, but still make a mess From now on I'm listening, and saving my breath Lately I'm losing my appetite For all the pretty young girls and the socialites Who just talk And this is what we do, we just talk Watch 'em waste breath on a magazine Or rehash what the television shows all mean It's just talk And this is what we do, we just talk Some people don't know how they really feel Some people won't talk about what is real And I could never chitchat all day long Some people just look for an open ear Some people don't care what you want to hear And everybody's talking while they're stringing me along I'll go by what you do Cause talk is cheap And I don't want to wait for you Cause talk is cheap I don't know how you spend your time But I'm done wasting all of mine Cause talk is cheap Lately I'm tired of politics And listening to the neverending arguments That just stall And this is what we do, we just stall Never know someone to change their mind After a heated debate over the moral lines We just crossed But this is what we do, we just talk Some people get cute and they draw the line Some people won't choose over left and right And I could never stomach all that greed Some people don't care enough Some people get scared enough To get talked into something that they think they should believe I'll go by what you do Cause talk is cheap And I don't want to wait for you Cause talk is cheap I don't know how you spend your time But I'm done wasting all of mine Cause talk is cheap Some people, some people, some people Think action is overdue Some people, some people, some people Can't wait, we've got work to do (same as chorus) I only speak of what I've done Cause talk is cheap And if you're listening, everyone But you talk when you're talking to me I'll go by what to do Cause talk is cheap And I don't want to wait for you Cause talk is cheap I don't know how you spend your time But I'm done wasting all of mine Cause talk is cheap
