Some "friends" of mine I never met
called me the other day
They was gonna have a party
and they called me to say,
"Hey Joe, how ya doin', how's your album, how's your tour
How's Don Henley, how's Glenn Frey,
and who, what, where and when and why?"
They could not shut up (can't shut up)
They couldn't shut up (can't shut up)
So I hung up (can't shut up)
Well I followed their directions
and arrived a little late
I had a couple Chardonnays
and started feelin' great
I said, 'I hate to interrupt, I'll be right back, I gotta pee"
30 people in the bathroom started talkin' to me
They could not shut up (can't shut up)
(can't shut up)
I said, "HEY...shut up!" (can't shut up)
They could not shut up
Well, just to get out of the bathroom
took the rest of the year,
and then a polyester pantsuit
named Mandingo grabbed my ear
said, "I heard you're rich and famous,
but I don't know who you are
You gotta sign this for my nephew,
or he won't believe I met you"
She just could not shut up (can't shut up)
No, no she could not shut up (can't shut up)
She couldn't shut up (can't shut up)
I said: "Shut up!" (can't shut up)
She could not shut up (can't shut up)
She, she, she, she could not shut up (can't shut up)
No, no, no she could not shut up (can't shut up)
She said: "blah, blah, blah" (can't shut up)
I said: "hahahaha, Shut up!"
Shut up (can't shut up)
