Show Don't Tell Lyrics

How many times do you hear it?

 It goes on all day long

 Everyone knows everything

 And no one's ever wrong

 Until later...

 

 Who can you believe?

 It's hard to play it safe

 But apart from a few good friends

 We don't take anything on faith

 Until later...

 

 Show...don't tell...

 

 (Show me, don't tell me)

 You've figured out the score

 (Show me, don't tell me)

 I've heard it all before

 (Show me, don't tell me)

 I don't care what you say

 (Show me, don't tell me)

 Reality won't budge

 You can raise objections

 And the jury

 

 I'll give it due reflection

 Watching from the fence

 Give the jury direction

 Based on the evidence

 I, the jury

 

 (Show me, don't tell me)

 Hey, order in the court

 (Show me, don't tell me)

 Let's try to keep it short

 (Show me, don't tell me)

 Enough of your demands

 (Show me, don't tell me)

 Witness take the stand

 (Show me, don't tell me)

 

 (Show me, don't tell me)

 Hey, order in the court

 (Show me, don't tell me)

 Let's try to keep it short

 (Show me, don't tell me)

 I don't care what you say

 (Show me, don't tell me)

 Let's see exhibit A
