Wagging Tongue

  • You won't do well to silence me
    With your words or wagging tongue
    With your long, tall tales to sorrow
    Your song has to be sung
    I won't be offended
    If I left across the great di-
    Believe me, they will follow
    Just to watch another angel die
    Watch another angel die, die

    You won't do well to darken me
    With your secrets and your lies
    With your piercing code of silence
    Relax, enjoy the ride
    I'll meet you by the river (by the river)
    Or maybe on the other side (side)
    You'll find it hard to swallow (swallow)
    When you watch another angel die

    Watch another angel
    Die, die, die, die
    Die, die, die, die
    Die, die, die, die
    Die, die, die, die Writer/s: David Gahan, Martin Gore
