Quiet As a Mouse
Quiet as a Mouse
Can I finally stop worrying anymore?
Area developer's gonna get us a grocery store
If some secret he's harboring I wonder where
Brunswick County should have one they can spare?
They think we are Millionaires living on a terrace
And every year they will take a trip to Paris
Then when they return with us try to trifle
Said the looked in London and saw the Eifel.
Our county has many types of people who vary
No telling what they will wear or could carry
Like tattoos on their arms and even knees
That are worn both by she's as well as he's.
Do they think they are all a tourist attraction?
What a way to get some self-satisfaction
By your miserable body being mutilated
That beautiful one for you God had created.
Were answers found in writing on the wall?
Hieroglyphics we found over the long haul
Saying we should get a store near our house.
Asked about it and they were quiet as a mouse.
