Pie Hole
by Terry Scott Taylor

Album: Avocado Fault Line

I'm all for strong women
and what they have to say
They deserved liberation
Same work, equal pay
I like restaurants or parties
with mixed company
but there's times I like hangin' out
with just my buddies and me

Lately there's a lady
whose lurking about
She finds the time and the places
the boys are gonna hang out
and she thinks we'll consider her
just one of us
if she drinks like a sailor
and knows how to cuss

Put a lid on it baby
Zip it up, lose the key
Who invited you anyway?
It sure wasn't me
Your long stories are boring,
that jokes obnoxious at best
Put a lid on it bably,
give your pie hole a rest

My wife is a wonder
she's my dearest friend
She can charm all the ladies,
hold her own with the men
But she and her girlfriends
will get together sometimes
for chewin' the fat
and speakin' their minds
And she can't comprehend a
woman's lack of respect
for the break we all need from
the opposite sex
or people so plainly
unsure of themselves
that they have to pretend that
they're somebody else

Put a lid on it baby
Zip it up, lose the key
Who invited you anyway?
It sure wasn't me
We're too kind to tell you
that we all think it best
you put a lid on it baby
Give you pie hole a rest

Each band has their "Yoko"
Each day has a night
Hillary has Bubba
Ben Franklin loved kites
Now we're sitting here wondering,
we can't understand
how a gal thinks we'll dig her
if she acts like a man

Put a lid on it baby
Zip it up, lose the key
Who invited you anyway?
It sure wasn't me
You're smart and you're pretty
but with us you're a mess
Put a lid on it baby
Give your pie hole a rest
Put a lid on it baby
Give your pie hole a rest
