Lyrics:
Can you hear them?
They talk about us
Telling lies
Well, that's no surprise
Can you see them?
See right through them
They have no shield
No secrets to reveal
Doesn't matter what they say
In the jealous games people play
Hey, hey, hey
Our lips are sealed
There's a weapon
That we must use
In our defense
Silence
When you look at them
Look right through them
That's when they'll disappear
That's when we'll be feared
It doesn't matter what they say
In the jealous games people play
Hey, hey, hey
Our lips are sealed
Pay no mind to what they say
It doesn't matter anyway
Hey, hey, hey
Our lips are sealed
Hush, my darling
Don't you cry
Quiet angel
Forget their lies
Can you hear them?
They talk about us
Telling lies
Well, that's no surprise
Can you see them?
See right through them
They have no shield
No secrets to reveal
Doesn't matter what they say
In the jealous games people play
Hey, hey, hey
Our lips are sealed
Pay no mind to what they say
It doesn't matter anyway
Hey, hey, hey
Our lips are sealed
Our lips are sealed
Oh our lips are sealed!

RIP Terry Hall, who died today. Another 80s legend who left us far too early. Hearing this great song reminds me what great music the youth of that time could make. Losing him and Jet Black from The Stranglers just a few days previously reminds me that whilst the 80s was in some ways an era of darkness it also brought about some fantastic groundbreaking music by a generation inspired by punk but with a lot more sophistication. I was at school during the 2 tone/ska revival of the early 80s and I remember the music being haunting and memorable. At his best Terry was a naturally talented singer and songwriter who overcame a horrific childhood trauma to make great music. He is also the third original member of the groundbreaking Coventry band, The Specials, to die (after John Bradbury and Rico Rodriguez).

[@actualbennett2245]

All decades are in some way a dark era. Certainly anybody who truly remembers the '70s would say the same. And '80s music was inspired by ska and all sorts of other music, as well as being influenced by music technology pure inspiration of its musicians, just as in any other decade. You only need to listen to Terry's music. He was a genius.

[@patrickbyrne2738]

Terry Hall wrote this when he was 21 with Jane Wiedlin. Compare that to the auto tuned Simon Cowell clones, and it's wonderful. I'm shocked that he's died - far too soon. He affected so many of us, and the music stays with us. Thank you Terry.

[@shakeyhandsshedmodelrailwa2494]

talent that todays musicians but for a select handful will never attain if they live to be 500

[@zimzimzalabim]

For those that don't know, Terry Hall had a fling with Jane Wiedlin from The Go Go's when they were on tour together. He wrote this song about them and their secret relationship (Terry had a girlfriend back then), then sent the lyrics to Jane, who worked on the music. That's why both bands recorded it, and came out a couple of years apart. Both songs were hits on opposite sides of the Atlantic. (Go Go's hit #20 in US, #3 in Canada, and FBT 's version peaked at #7 in UK). Gotta love that a story like this was told by both sides, albeit in different styles. Edit: RIP Terry Hall... what a legacy you leave behind; you will be missed! 😢

I love both versions, but this one somehow speaks to me more, perhaps because the lyrics are brought out by the music more, whereas the Go Go's version is so upbeat, you tend to not pay as much attention to the meaning behind the words. I was 14 when it came out, and I'm 54 now. 40 years have flown by already.

It was Terry Hall's birthday, and Neville Staples sneaked out on stage before the gig started and asked us all to sing Happy Birthday on his signal, his signal being, him handing Terry the biggest spliff I'd seen up til that point of my life!

[@nadiat.pugglesworthiii923]

The best version of this song bar none!

[@terencerollins7917]

What a classic. The bass note, the rhythm, the contrast of Terry being totally stoic and almost hypnotic while Lynval beats out the bongo drums. The lady drummer wow- the theatre of this is just awesome. RIP Terry Hall.

I used to play this on a cassette driving in the outback, except the chorus was always "Our roads are sealed"

[@missq3989]

Love both versions, but this one is next level . It's the cello and Congo's that takes it to the next level . Also vocals from the drummer are intercoursing perfect .
