I don't want anyone to find me
I don't want to talk to them
By which I mean anyone at all
I want a little quiet

I don't want anything new
At least something I'd have to start
There's too much left unfinished
All I have is a work of R.

I won't talk about why
I'm complacent in my old age
Of course I won't talk about anything
So why that?

I won't think about how
Everyone I knew has changed
We were all just kids, we did what we needed
No sense in talking about it anymore

If you've got nothing nice to say
Just find an effective way to say it
Considerate silence doesn't make people feel bad

If you've got nothing nice to say
Don't fucking grin and bear it
Figure out a way to make everyone think about the same

I don't want to be alive
I'd rather be down in a hole
Thinking about skateboarding
It's something I can't do

Let me sleep under my bed
I'm liable to bump my head
I haven't done that since the RV
Harsher words have been said

I don't think about how
I haven't thought of anything yet
I'll get a little more fat or a lot more famous
To distract from the obvious

If you've got nothing nice to say
Just find an effective way to say it
Considerate silence doesn't make people feel bad

If you've got nothing nice to say
Don't fucking grin and bear it
Figure out a way to make everyone think about the same

Every good idea
That's ever existed
Was killed by a business
Out to make money
Every good idea
Is just something bad

I'd love some ideas
I got nothing today
There should be something someday
I'll sell out to a business
None of my ideas
Will save the world

If the world needs saving, I don't want to do it
I'd like to stand on my ideals to walk down some stairs
I'll be a little bit shorter I won't hit my head
I'll hit zero on vacation, find someone who cares
There's no right way to say it but you both grew up the same
Well not quite exactly but if you chop off your right half and then take her left
Push until you hear the click
It sort of matches, maybe

If you've got nothing nice to say
Just find an effective way to say it
Considerate silence doesn't make people feel bad

If you've got nothing nice to say
Don't fucking grin and bear it
Figure out a way to make everyone think about the same

i very well agree that people should either shut up or find another way to speak.. and i like that you just made this all up on your own.. you didn't rhyme at all, it was just you.. and thats cool
