Did you hear about the deaf girl The one who sang a silent song Although it's totally quiet You can't help but hum along Did you hear about the deaf girl The one who wrote the silent CD Although there's nothing to hear I swear that there are things to be seen She'll make the world stand still She'll make the world stand still And someone sing us a song That makes us feel like raspberries in the middle of June When the garden's just getting going Someone sing us a song That makes us feel like the coolest kid on the first day of school You're as big as you're gonna get but you're still growing Did you hear about the deaf girl The one whose song's gone number one Three minutes of silence on the radio It's the best damn gift for everyone Did you hear about the deaf girl The one who made everything clear If we could just shut up for a second My darling, my dear, we might actually hear She made the world stand still She made the world stand still And someone sing us a song That makes us feel like the dead are breathing birthday balloons And they blow and they blow and they blow And someone sing us a song That makes us feel like the fourth of July and New Year's Eve Are making love in the snow Ah-oh, ah-oh
