Lyrics Don't Say Nothing - Patti Smith
Lower
the
thing
the
skin
of
a
cat
Skin
it
to
the
left
just
laying
there
No
other
thing
is
luck
like
that
And
you
set
it
said
it
said
nothing
Went
to
the
party
very
discouraged
I
watched
the
litter
pile
like
a
wall
I
looked
at
the
river
just
couldn′t
forgive
it
It
was
ladened
with
all
kinds
of
shit
Still
I
admit
that
I
didn't
say
nothing
I
turned
my
back
walked
away
Got
to
face
the
fact
that
I
didn′t
say
nothing
Everyone
was
dancing
I
stood
over
in
the
corner
I
was
listening
they
were
saying
this
and
saying
that
And
putting
this
one
down
but
nothing
was
delivered
Nothing
good
was
coming
I
just
stood
there
I
couldn't
believe
it
but
I
didn't
say
nothing
I
walked
the
floor
then
I
looked
away
Got
to
face
the
fact
that
I
didn′t
say
nothing
How
long
how
long
will
we
make
do
Maybe
it′s
time
to
break
on
through
Gonna
lift
my
skirts
gonna
straighten
up
Gonna
get
well
I'm
gonna
do
something
Gonna
face
the
fact
gonna
give
it
back
And
I′m
gonna
do
something
won't
hold
my
tongue
Won′t
hold
the
thought
won't
hold
the
card
Well
I′m
gonna
do
something
Oh
my
brain
I
got
to
complain
You
can
refrain
but
I'm
gonna
do
something
How
long
how
long
will
we
make
do
Maybe
it's
time
to
break
on
through
Out
in
the
desert
I
saw
that
old
cat
skinned
I
saw
it
floating
in
the
river
I
saw
and
no
one
seemed
to
mind
They
sat
there
they
sat
there
watching
the
sun
I
saw
it
float
away
and
I
watched
the
buildings
crumble
Like
dust
in
the
hand
and
we
watched
the
sun
Spread
its
wings
and
fly
away
And
in
the
mountains
a
cry
echoes
Don′t
say
nothing
Don′t
say
nothing
no
Don't
say
nothing
no
