[Verse 1]
Don't want to talk about the government
Don't want to talk about some incident
Don't want to talk about some peppermint gum
Don't want to talk about the time to come
Button my lip 'til I'm smart enough
[Verse 2]
Don't raise your hand 'cause I'm not offering
It serves you right, now you are suffering
Give me a chance to see it though
It all depends on what you hold is true
Button my lip with your kiss
[Verse 3]
Don't want to hear some little sniveling
You just don't get what I'm delivering
Maybe you want me but you know you can't
I'd say, "I want you?" but you know I don't
Button my lip 'til I'm old enough
'Til I'm smart enough
'Til I'm, button my lip
[Verse 4]
Don't want to come at your beckoning
For any day they'll be a reckoning
Don't want to hear what is impossible
Baby, you've become invisible
Button my lip
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 5]
I've seen those clowns vacant and insolent
I stand accused but I am innocent
I am the mighty and the magnificent
I am the mighty and the magnificent
I am the mighty and the magnificent
Ow
Yeah
