"put a lid on it!" in lyrics

Tobias Rahim - When Men Cry

Pull yourself together, yeah
Just man up
Put a lid on it all
Keep your screams inside yourself

Tzimis Panousis - Little Teresa

It's not dope, 'cause you're dead
You curly-haired little Teresa
Thirty centimeter long blunt
And dazed, you get eaten by wolves

Wish (OST) - This Wish

told me what to do
But in my bones I long for freedom
So I put a lid on it, so it couldn't overflow

Amazarashi - Monster

This one is a monster who devours the words of liars, one person at a time.
And everybody keeps a monster of their own,
Like a secret that grows larger after you put a lid on it.
That shadow you’ve been keeping, towering behind you, looks like it’s gotten pretty big.

Cheloo - The exorcist in tights

We burn it gloriously like the exorcist in tights
With a thousand problems or just struck by laziness
We won't put a lid on it, yo, dude, it's too early
Our stated goal is to generate migraines

No. 4 - Another You

Just turn around
Put a lid on it1
Put all the blame on me

  • 1. Å legge/sette lokket på = to ignore or suppress your feelings, but I couldn't think of an equivalent short phrase in English

Anvil - Shut The Fuck Up

Shut the fuck up close your trap
Shut the fuck up you're full of crap
Shut the fuck up put a lid on it
You are full of shit

Lefa - Black out

They planted the murder weapon in my pocket and then asked, "Who does it belong to?"
They said I was under the influence of drugs, they didn't even take a urine sample
Why, every time I try to do good, there's someone to put a lid on it?
I need to zip it when I make good resolutions, the Devil is close by

Nik & Jay - Tropicana

[Build: Nik]
What a life, what a show
Woh-oh – why put a lid on it?
My fantasy makes me rich

Hollywood Undead - Lump Your Head

Boy, you better put a lid on it

You don't know what it's like to get your head lumped in
You keep flappin' those gum's like you the boss

Cher - Love The Devil Out Of Ya

But some of your pals want to stay alive!
I'll put a lid on it
I'll put a lid down on it
Save it for another night

Rada - My vape buddy

...

This goes out to all the angry vapers who stil have some will to fight
the phenomenal international scandal.
