You Talk Too Much
George And The Destroyers Thorogood Lyrics

You talk too much, you talk too much
You speak excessively and for too long

I can't believe the things that you say Everyday
I am astounded by what you say every day

If you keep on talking baby You know you're bound to drive me away
If you keep on talking, it will lead to my departure

Now you get on the telephone with your girlfriend Your conversation baby ain't got no end
You talk endlessly on the phone with your girlfriend

Yakety-yakety-yakety-yak all the time You keep on talking baby drive me out of my mind
Your incessant talking drives me crazy

Well I laid out in the afternoon I start to nappin' You walk into the room with them jaws a-flappin'
When I am taking a nap, you come in and talk loudly

You keep that motormouth moving morning, noon and night You keep on talking baby make my head turn white
You talk nonstop all day long and it gives me a headache

I think you're trying to put me through some kind of test I'm begging you baby won't you give it a rest
I feel like you are testing my patience and I am asking you to stop talking

You talk about people that you don't even know Keep it up baby I'm gonna pick up and blow
You talk about people you have no relationship with, and I am going to lose my temper if you keep it up

Don't get me wrong baby I don't mean to complain, But if you keep on talking you're gonna drive me insane
I do not want to offend you, but your talking will make me crazy

You keep on talking all around the clock, I'm begging you baby won't you please stop
You talk twenty-four-seven, and I am begging you to stop

Yes if you keep on talking, baby You know you're bound just to drive me away
If you keep talking, I will eventually leave

Uh huh
Affirmative response or agreement

Yes dear
Sarcastic or insincere agreement

Yes I'm listening
Claiming that they are hearing what is being said

Oh I heard every word you said, honey
Pretending to have heard everything that was said, possibly insincere

Yes
Another sarcastic or insincere agreement

Oh I agree you're right
Sarcastic or insincere agreement

Yes, you're always right
Sarcastic or insincere agreement

Uh huh
Agreeing without much interest in what is being said

Yeah I, I, I think I heard You Shut up
Pretending to be attentive, but demanding that the other person stop talking
