[Verse 1]
They said use duct tape
On the bumper and the bin
On the cracked old esky lid
On your heart when it caves in
They said use duct tape
On the couch the dog ripped out
On the screen door flappin’ wild
On whatever falls apart
[Chorus]
They said use duct tape
It can’t fix stupid
But it will muffle the sound (oh yeah)
Wrap it ‘round that mouth
‘Fore it runs you in the ground
They said use duct tape
Silver round and round
It can’t fix stupid
But it will muffle the sound
[Verse 2]
Cuz you’re holdin’ court at morning tea
Talkback radio in my lounge
Every headline
Every rumour
You repeat it word for word out loud
I got kids doin’ homework
Tryin’ hard to tune you out
Got a roll in the junk drawer
It’s callin’ your name now
[Chorus]
They said use duct tape
It can’t fix stupid
But it will muffle the sound (hey!)
Wrap it ‘round that mouth
‘Fore it runs you in the ground
They said use duct tape
Silver round and round
It can’t fix stupid
But it will muffle the sound
[Bridge]
[Band drops
Just guitar and voice]
I could argue
I could plead
Quote a thousand facts and feeds
But you’re married to your doubts
So I’ll take mercy on my ears right now (shh)
[Chorus]
They said use duct tape
It can’t fix stupid
But it will muffle the sound (muffle the sound)
Wrap it ‘round that mouth
‘Fore it runs you in the ground
They said use duct tape
Pass that roll around
It can’t fix stupid
But it will muffle the sound |
