Joe Walsh – Shut Up lyrics

Some friends of mine I never met called me the other day

They was gonna have a party and they called me to say

Hey Joe, how ya doin', how's your album, how's your tour

How's Don Henley, how's Glenn Frey,

And who, what where and when and why

They could not shut up (can't shut up)

They couldn't shut up (can't shut up)

So I hung up (can't shut up)



Well I followed their directions and arrived a little late

I had a couple Chardonnays and started feelin' great

I said I hate to interrupt, I'll be right back I gotta pee

30 people in the bathroom started talkin' to me

They could not shut up (can't shut up)

(can't shut up)

I said HEY...shut up (can't shut up)

They could not shut up



Well, just to get out of the bathroom took the rest of the year,

And then a polyester pantsuit named Mandingo grabbed my ear

Said I heard you're rich and famous but I don't know who you are

You gotta sign this for my nephew or he won't believe I met you

She just could not shut up (can't shut up)

No, no she could not shut up (can't shut up)

She couldn't shut up (can't shut up)

I said: "Shut up" (can't shut up)

She could not shut up (can't shut up)

She, she, she, she could not shut up (can't shut up)

No, no, no she could not shut up (can't shut up)

She said: "blah, blah, blah" (can't shut up)

I said: "hahahaha, Shut up"

Shut up (can't shut up)
