"Hush Hush" lyrics - PISTOL ANNIES

My brother got out of rehab
Right around Christmas time
Mama made a turkey, daddy was worried
He was gonna have to break up a fight
Everybody was walkin' on eggshells
Drinkin' eggnog instead of beer
We were holdin' our tongues, scratchin' our heads
Wondering how the hell we got to here

Hush hush
Don't you dare say a word
Hush hush
Don't you know the truth hurts, hush hush
When push comes to shove
It's best to keep it hush hush

We were sittin' 'round the dinner table
And we were eatin' our pumpkin pie
While the sugar-coated dirty little secret
Was eatin' everybody alive
Well, daddy's reading propaganda
And he's talkin' about the end of days
Well, cheers to the vodka mama's been sneakin'
Let's all gather 'round and pray

Hush hush
Don't you dare say a word
Hush hush
Don't you know the truth hurts, hush hush
When push comes to shove
It's best to keep it hush hush

So I snuck out behind the red barn
And I took myself a toke
Since everybody here hates everybody here
Hell, I might as well be the joke
I'm gonna dance up on the table
Singin' "This Little Light Of Mine"
God gave it to me, what good's it gonna do me
If I don't, by God, let it shine

Hush hush
Don't you dare say a word
Hush hush
Don't you know the truth hurts, hush hush
When push comes to shove
It's best to keep it hush hush

Hide your tattoo
Put on your Sunday best
Pretend you're not a mess
Be the happy family in the front pew

Hush hush
Don't you dare say a word
Hush hush
Boy, you know the truth hurts, hush hush
When push comes to shove
It's best to keep it hush hush

Don't you dare say a word
Hush hush
Don't you know the truth hurts
Hush hush
When push comes to shove
It's best to keep it hush hush
Best to keep it hush hush
