Joan Armatrading - Talking to the Wall lyrics
[Joan Armatrading - Talking to the Wall lyrics]
There's a very old expression
Called talking to the wall and it means
You get no answers just stone silence
But walls have ears and you can hear me
When I call
I can feel it feel it in my bones
You really mean it it is not a hoax
Sham bam thank you ma'am
Not for you you're bona fide ah
You don't come on in a trojan horse
No hidden wires to make me fall
What I see is what I get
Straight and true my solid wall
You keep my chin up
Stabilise my highs and lows
You're extra special nothing superficial
You see right through me rust
Cracks warts and all
Nothing changes i'm the last word
In what you want you're as solid
As a wall and I can
Lean against you
I can tell you all my troubles
And I know you'll hear me
Walls have ears you can hear me
When I call talking to the wall
Called talking to the wall and it means
You get no answers just stone silence
But walls have ears and you can hear me
When I call
I can feel it feel it in my bones
You really mean it it is not a hoax
Sham bam thank you ma'am
Not for you you're bona fide ah
You don't come on in a trojan horse
No hidden wires to make me fall
What I see is what I get
Straight and true my solid wall
You keep my chin up
Stabilise my highs and lows
You're extra special nothing superficial
You see right through me rust
Cracks warts and all
Nothing changes i'm the last word
In what you want you're as solid
As a wall and I can
Lean against you
I can tell you all my troubles
And I know you'll hear me
Walls have ears you can hear me
When I call talking to the wall
