Lyrics

Dave peverett - pevwrite music - ascap

I woke up last night about half past four, two police cars at my door
Said you'd been drunk and out of control, you ran my car into a telephone pole
Tell me baby, is it true what I heard? you never said a word

Don't give me that silent treatment, don't give me that silent treatment
When you do something bad, it only drives me mad - you do it every time

Well, I said, "hey baby, what you tryin' to do?
The things I heard about you can't be true
Every night you're out on the town, you run my money into the ground
"Hey baby, were you out with the boys?" you never made a noise

Don't give me that silent treatment, don't give me that silent treatment
When you do something bad, it only drives me mad - you do it every time

Well you broke my heart, it was an accident, just like my money, all my love is spent
I don't know why but I can't get through to you

Don't give me that silent treatment, don't give me that silent treatment
When you do something bad, it only drives me mad - you do it every time

{Dave - solo}

Well you broke my heart, it was an accident, just like my money, all my love is spent
I don't know why but I can't get through to you

Don't give me that silent treatment, don't give me that silent treatment
When you do something bad, it only drives me mad - you do it every time
Oh yeah!

{Dave - solo}

Don't give me that silent treatment, don't give me that silent treatment
When you do something bad, it only drives me mad - you do it every time

Don't give me that silent treatment, don't give me that silent treatment
When you do something bad, it always drives me mad - you do it every time

Don't give me that - (silent treatment) (silent treatment)
You do something bad, it only drives me mad - you do it every time

Don't give me that - (silent treatment)
You do something bad, it only drives me mad - you do it every time

Don't give me that silent treatment, don't give me that silent treatment

When you do something bad, it only drives me mad - you do it every time

Don't give me that
