Yap Yap
Breaking Silence: Keith Richards' Yap Yap Unveiled
Lyrics
Well I hear you talking and I see me walking
Expressing awareness of someone's talk while observing one's own actions.
Let me make clear
Emphasizing the need for clarity in communication.
I'm outta here, oh yah
Declaring the decision to leave or end a situation.
You know it makes no sense to me
Expressing confusion or disagreement with a situation or statement.
No way you gonna get no fence around me
Rejecting the idea of being confined or restricted.
Yap Yap
Yap Yap - possibly representing meaningless or excessive chatter.
You known you talk too much, mmm yeh
Pointing out that someone talks excessively.
Yap Yap you talk too much
Repeating the idea that the person talks too much.
Even in my sleep I hear you babe
Noting that the speaker hears the person even in their sleep.
But it makes me weep when I'm awake
Expressing emotional distress caused by the constant talk even during waking hours.
When I hear the whispers, babe
Referring to hearing secretive or private conversations.
The echoes coming round the bluff
Describing the recurrence of rumors or discussions around a certain topic.
I get all my secrets back
Implies regaining awareness of personal secrets due to overheard conversations.
It's quite a shock
Expressing surprise or disbelief at the revelation of one's secrets.
Mmm yeah, Yap Yap, you know you're talking too much
Reiterating the idea that excessive talking is a problem.
Mmm it's driving me, driving me
Stating that the constant talk is causing frustration or irritation.
So what's the message
Posing a question about the purpose or content of the excessive talk.
Why don't you talk to me
Asking the person to communicate more meaningfully.
Yeah - it gets to me
Expressing personal frustration or annoyance with the constant talking.
Well I hear you talking
Reiterating the awareness of the excessive talking.
It makes no sense to me
Restating the lack of understanding or agreement with the situation.
Yap Yap you talk too much
Repeating the assertion that the person talks too much.
