She`s given up talking
Don`t say a word
Even in the classroom
Not a dickie bird
Unlike other children
She`s seen and never heard
She`s given up talking
Don`t say a word
You see her in the playground
Standing on her own
Everybody wonders
Why she`s all alone
Someone made her angry
Someone`s got her scared
She`s given up talking
Don`t say a word
Ah but when she comes home
It`s yap-a-yap-yap
Words are running freely
Like the water from a tap
Her brothers and her sisters
Can`t get a word in edgeways
But when she`s back at school again
She goes into a daze
Ah but when she comes home
It`s yap-a-yap-yap
Words are running freely
Like the water from a tap
Her brothers and her sisters
Can`t get a word in edgeways
But when she`s back at school again
She goes into a daze
She`s given up talking
Don`t say a word
Even in the classroom
Not a dickie bird
Unlike other children
She`s seen and never heard
She`s given up talking
Don`t say a word
She`s given up talking
She don`t say a word
Don`t say a word
