Talkback Lyrics - Now Then - Stiff Little Fingers

Every time I go to speak my mind you just ignore me 

Every time I try to have my say you have it for me 

They say there's freedom of speech 

But when I try to make free you say 

Don't you talk back to me 

Don't you talk back to me 

Don't you talk back to me 

Every time 

Every time I ask you to lend an ear I get both together 

Everything I say just goes in one and out the other 

They say there's freedom of thought 

But when I think out aloud you say 

Don't you talk back to me 

Don't you talk back to me 

Don't you talk back to me 

Now you must see reason 

See that I'm a person 

Shut your face and listen .... ain't it time 

And if you open your mouth 

I'll jump straight down your throat and say 

Don't you talk back to me 

Don't you talk back to me 

Don't you talk back to me 

Don't you talk back to me 

Don't you talk back to me 

Don't you talk back to me 

Anytime
