It Never Changes To Stop - The Books

Sit up straight and be quiet

Sit down, son

Sit up straight in your seat

And I do not want any more talking

Any more moving about, at all

Absolutely still, absolutely quiet

Look up here.

Look up here!

Let me have your undivided attention

Nobody talking, nobody moving

Absolutely (snap) nobody looking around

Alright put your hands down

Eyes (snap) closed

Close your eyes, eyes closed

Come on, right now, come on

Nobody moving, nobody talking

Absolutely still, every eye closed

And, uh, he thought he could, um, uh

He could stop when he wanted to

That he can stop, you know

When he wants to stop

And, uh, I don’t think that he ever

Really believed that he couldn’t stop

I really believe that I think that he really felt

That he could stop whenever he wanted to

(No chorus)
