Lyrics

TALK TALK TALK

Put your hand on the rail you’re going electric
No one can fail and nothing to lose
Eyes wide closed as you show ‘em your next trick
They don’t know they’ve got nothing to choose

Psychopaths pull it down from the inside
It can’t last so they’re telling you
You may pray but the saint’s won’t preserve us
They might deserve us and probably do

You just talk, talk, talk and you think it's over
talk, talk, talk till you’re black and blue
your outline’s in chalk and the party is over
drink up that kool-aid that they served to you

Rattle them bones in a spell that you’re casting
No one’s home but they’re watching you
What a world we’ve come to believe in
Where you are a lie and I am not true

It’s always the end of time in this movie
You can wait for a sign or get moving

Like fish in a bowl you can see your own future
All that time they’ve been looking for you
Pilgrim stranger swim to the far shore
Wanted to know more but nobody knew

You just talk, talk, talk and you think it's over
talk, talk, talk till you’re black and blue
your outline’s in chalk and the party is over
drink up that kool-aid that they served to you
