Dead Men Don’t Talk Lyrics
Dead men don't talk
I can see that you don't give a damn
Your big sneer because of who I am
You've got me down with your master plan
So?
I guess you're scared if I "spill them beans"
You don't know what love means
You're more concerned about designer jeans
So?
Unite tonight and say I'm right
Dead men don't talk
Unite tonight you know I'm right
Dead men don't talk
Tried the water with the tip of my toes
So sad had to blow my nose
Too hot, that's the way it goes
So?
Don't worry about the knock on the door
Can't talk cos I'm on that floor
Ain't going to be a threat no more
So?
Don't care if you crush my thumbs
Or use my head like a kettledrum
You're good ways are going to stay undone
So?
Your big sneer because of who I am
You've got me down with your master plan
So?
You don't know what love means
You're more concerned about designer jeans
So?
Dead men don't talk
Unite tonight you know I'm right
Dead men don't talk
So sad had to blow my nose
Too hot, that's the way it goes
So?
Can't talk cos I'm on that floor
Ain't going to be a threat no more
So?
Or use my head like a kettledrum
You're good ways are going to stay undone
So?

A little less blatantly than others on the album, this track is about selfish, greedy individuals who kill even those they love to hide their secrets and crimes, as stated by the recurring phrase and title "Dead Men Don't Talk." They only care about money or high-quality goods, even something as petty as designer jeans, not the life that they'd have to snuff out to get them.
