My baby
さよならは言わないで
終わりなのに弾む笑顔と
明るい声じゃ せつないよ...
あとでね
You drive me crazy
覚悟していたよ
今日二人は他人になること
僕じゃない 他のヤツ
好きだなんて言わないで
君を引き止めてしまいたいよ
この腕で
このままで終わりなの? Baby no
行くな 何も言わずにどうか
SHUT UP Kissをした唇で Baby
SHUT UP 彼のことを話すなよ Yeah
SHUT UP I know 何もかも
そうさ 僕じゃ釣り合わない
SHUT UP あの囁いた声で Baby
SHUT UP 彼の名前を呼ぶのか Hey
SHUT UP I know ツラいだろ
だから No I can't let you go
他にもう話すことないの?
「ごめんね ありがと 元気でね
あなたならきっと
見つかる」なんて
I don't wanna hear it no more
いますぐ壊してしまいたいよ
この腕で
思いきり抱きしめて Baby no
なのに それでも行くの? なぜだ
SHUT UP Kissをした唇で Baby
SHUT UP 彼のことを話すなよ Yeah
SHUT UP I know 何もかも
そうさ 僕じゃ釣り合わない
SHUT UP あの囁いた声で Baby
SHUT UP 彼の名前を呼ぶのか Hey
SHUT UP I know ツラいだろ
だから No I can't let you go
止められないこと 知りながら
認められずにいた
Don't say it's over
身勝手だとわかりながら なのに
No I can't let you go
SHUT UP Kissをした唇で Baby
SHUT UP 彼のことを話すなよ Yeah
SHUT UP I know 何もかも
そうさ 僕じゃ釣り合わない
SHUT UP あの囁いた声で Baby

Overall Meaning

These lyrics are from the song "Shut Up" by D.R.I. (Punk). The song is about a breakup and the conflicting emotions and thoughts that the singer is experiencing.


The first verse sets the scene of the breakup, with the singer addressing their partner, asking them not to say goodbye. Despite knowing that their relationship is ending, the singer can't help but feel sadness when they see their partner's happy demeanor and hear their cheerful voice. The singer acknowledges that their partner is going to become someone else's and not theirs. They don't want their partner to express love for someone else and wish they could stop them from leaving.


The chorus, "Shut up, shut up, shut up, no I can't let you go," expresses the singer's inner turmoil. They don't want to hear their partner talking about the new person in their life and acknowledging that they are incompatible with them. The singer finds it painful to listen to their partner's voice whispering to the new person and calling out their name. They know that the situation is difficult but can't bring themselves to let go.


In the second verse, the singer admits their desire to break everything and hold their partner tight, not wanting them to leave. They question why their partner is still leaving even though they want to hold on. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the singer's struggle to let go and their pain in hearing about the new person.


The final lines reveal that the singer is aware that they are unable to stop the breakup, even though they know deep down that they can't accept it. They feel selfish for not letting go despite understanding the situation. The chorus is repeated again, emphasizing their inability to let go and accept the end of the relationship.


Overall, "Shut Up" is a raw and emotional song that captures the conflicting feelings experienced during a breakup, from the desire to hold on to the pain of letting go. The lyrics convey a sense of turmoil and frustration, expressing the singer's struggle to accept the end of the relationship.

We won't mention names
But why don't you ever shut up?
You're constantly talking
And I just can't keep up

Conversations a joke
Is your head made of oak?
Endlessly blabbing
But sometimes it feels like you're stabbing

Shut up!
Shut up!
Shut the fuck up!

Bragging and lying
So you won't have to stop
I've got to get out
My head's about to pop

You know who you are
C'mon give me a break
You go on and on
Until I feel faint

Shut up!
Shut up! What are you deaf?
Shut up!

DRI is undoubtedly the best band to see live in any small venue or bar...Jaxx Springfield VA...the greatest
