Lyrics:

Something's happenin' but I'm just gonna turn a blind eye
If I see no evil, ask no questions, and I hear no lies
Can't communicate with minds that are small
With some people it's like talkin' to the wall
And a fellow who walks away
Lives to battle another day
And I've really got no appetite
For a fight
Not tonight
All I want is a quiet life
Anything for a quiet life
No ambition to rock the boat
When I can just stay afloat
Be content with a quiet life
All I want is a quiet life
Anything for a quiet life
Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil at all
Confidentially, between these walls
I'm on top of it all
I'd rather have 'em think I'm deaf, dumb, and blind
Than aggravation every time I speak my mind
Keep at a quiet life
Anything for a quiet life

I could easily blow my top
Start a row
But why start now?
Give your daddy a quiet life
Give your mother a quiet life
Anything for a quiet life
Give your daddy a quiet life
Give your mother a quiet life
Anything for a quiet life
Confidentially, between these walls
I'm on top of it all
