I don't wanna hear it

by: Thumb

I don't wanna hear it, all you do is talk about you!
I don't wanna hear it, cause I know none of it is true!
I don't wanna hear it, I'm sick and tired of all your lies!
I don't wanna hear it, when will you realize.
I don't wanna hear it, know you're full of shit!
Shut your fucking mouth, I don't care what you say, you keep talking,
talking shit every day, first you tell your stories, then you tell your lies...
