Don't You Feel Sometimes That People Just Should Hush

Don't you feel sometimes that people just should hush.
And give a rest to their mouths and keep them shut.
Even if taped or glued to prevent the rush.
Don't you feel sometimes that people just should hush.

Don't you feel your peace of mind is being crushed and flushed.
And everywhere you go you hear the fussing and words cussed.
Picking up a brush to throw it would not do too much.
Especially if it should hit someone waiting quietly for a bus.

Don't you feel sometimes that people just should hush.
And everywhere you go you hear the fussing and words cussed.
It's enough to go beserk and scream to cause a scene that disrupts.
Like those ushered away in silence to be confined and locked up.
