YOUR MIND IS ON VACATION – Mose Allison (2012)
The Ultimate “Mose” … our sardonic, witty, Jazz “Guru”…
Helping the Kids with LYME at musicians4childrenwithlyme.com here on our Music VIDEO “jukebox”. Mose was a great teacher for us. We are proud to be sharing his wonderful music. We support Kids with LYME and their families. All Donations go to non-profit foundations and groups helping them, not us. I was lucky to hear his wisdom.

Lyrics
You’re sitting there yakkin’ right in my face
I guess I’m gonna have to put you in your place
Y’know if silence was golden
You couldn’t raise a dime
Because your mind is on vacation and your mouth is
Working overtimeYou’re quoting figures, you’re dropping names
You’re telling stories about the dames
You’re always laughin’ when things ain’t funny
You try to sound like you’re big money
If talk was criminal, you’d lead a life of crime
Because your mind is on vacation and your mouth is
Working overtime
You know that life is short and talk is cheap
Don’t be making…
