What Would You Think

What would you think if I told all your secrets

Would it hurt you a lot would you have regrets

 

How would you feel if I repeated what you said

To the loved one that you have raised and fed

 

Who would you blame for words that came from my lips

Would you stand there mad with your hands on your hips

 

Would you ever wonder why I told them

Would you pull out my hair, would you rip out my hem

 

Why would you tell me such awful things

Would you wonder if you are a puppet on strings

 

Where would you go to keep the pain out

Would you hang your head, lean over and pout

 

One thing that's sure and one thing that's certain

I won't tell my secrets I'm pulling the curtain
