Vow of Silence

Dan Bern

Well, I took a vow of silence in the spring
While working for the PR firm
They were good about it for a while
Well, they finally had to let me go

They said, "Your clients want to hear something positive
But you don't say anything at all."
I shrugged and I punched my last timecard
Shook hands all around and left

Vow of silence
Vow of silence
Vow of silence
All day

And I took Jean Staley for a lover
'Cause of how her arms did feel
We looked each other in the eye
We twist togеther like a pretzеl

Jean Staley says, "I like the way you move."
She says, "I like the way you don't crowd me."
Jean Staley she says a lotta good things
And I don’t say anything at all

Vow of silence
Vow of silence
Vow of silence
All night

And my silence went through the summer
Clear to the fourth of July
When everybody else was out screaming
I was home staring at the ceiling

But then I drove to Tijuana
With a coconut and Jean Staley
Intending to go see a bullfight
That I missed when I went to Spain

Vow of silence
Vow of silence
Vow of silence
In the rain

We'd already been to all the ballparks
Seen the crappy teams play ball
We'd spent our time at the racetrack
Seen a couple ponies fall

But now it was time to get serious
See a man face death in the ring
We took out own water 'cause it’s Mexico
The sun was hot and I kept my

Vow of silence
Vow of silence
Vow of silence
In the ring

Well, maybe it was all about her hands
Maybe the pictures she made
Maybe that she is the only one
That calls me by my name

But for some funny, strange reason
Jean Staley never learned how to crowd me
So I keep my vow of silence
And our love blooms like a desert

Vow of silence
Vow of silence
Vow of silence
Hey

Vow of silence
Vow of silence
Vow of silence
All night
