Shut Up And Sing Lyrics

I can't wait, but they tell me to
I can't wait 'til they see
They've been holding me back all these years
From who I wanna be
I'm an understanding guy
But only to a point, see
My eyes once filled up with tears
I'm now filled with clarity

He doesn't take well to direction

Shut up and sing, you talk too much
You're gonna lose your mind, blaming it all on such and such
Sing out, Louise, you're losing your touch
You're gonna come to find, when you decide, it's you who writes the dream
Someday, you'll be king
Now shut up and sing

That's not how it's done, man
That must be just for fun, man
You can't be serious
All that work for just one fan
I'm tired of the calls
I'm bored with all your whiteboards
I don't wanna circle back
I'm done with all that

He doesn't take well to rejection

Shut up and sing, you talk too much
You're gonna lose your mind, blaming it all on such and such
Sing out, Louise, you're losing your touch
You're gonna come to find, when you decide, it's you who writes the dream
Someday, you'll be king
Now shut up and sing

Don't talk about it, sing
Let me hear you singing like there's no tomorrow
Sing out all the pain and sorrow now
Show me how

Shut up and sing, you talk too much
You're gonna lose your mind, blaming it all on such and such
Sing out, Louise, you're losing your touch
You're gonna come to find, when you decide, it's you who writes the dream
Someday, you'll be king
Shut up and sing

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
