Wheels within wheels
You think you're such a big shot
Manipulate, whoever you can
Just as long as you get what you want
You promise the world
"Stick with me: and I'll make you a star
'Cause I know the game
I've got it all planned
Without me you won't get very far

You talk but you don't say anything
You talk and your words don't mean a thing
You just talk for the sake of talking

Knowin' all the right people
You've got an 'in' with everyone
But I've heard from your so called friends
And they're all sayin' your face is run
Never admit to being wrong
Keep losing in your quest for fame
Look for the ladder in someone else's song
Then at the top you shout your own name

You talk but you don't say anything
You talk and your words don't mean a thing
You just talk for the sake of talking

You talk but you don't say anything
You talk and your words don't mean a thing
You just talk for the sake of talking

You talk as if you've been everywhere before
You act as if you know so much more
You never talk to, but you always talk down
You wanna soar like an eagle
But you're stuck on the ground

You talk but you don't say anything
You talk and your words don't mean a thing
You just talk for the sake of talking
[Repeat]

You talk but you don't say anything
