Kongos - Small Talk lyrics

You say God is great
And then you comment on the weather
You say this line is straight
But there's nothing for you to measure
And it's always like

You've got some big ideas
But your small talk's even bigger
From crown to lips
This bottleneck is not considered
Why's it always like

You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing
You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing
You gotta say something

You can brush aside a heart as
You try to weigh the sun
But the letters on your tongue
Get lighter and lighter
But who isn't lonely some nights?
And who isn't fighting some fight?

You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing
You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing

You feel a great big cloud
And somehow attach it to a dollar
You talk from both sides of your mouth
As the galaxy gets smaller
And it's always like

You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing
You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing

You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing
You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing

You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing
You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing

You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing
You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing
You gotta say something

You can brush aside a heart as
You try to weigh the sun
But the letters on your tongue
Get lighter and lighter
But who isn't lonely some nights?
And who isn't fighting some fight?

You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing
You gotta say something
'Cause I'm hearing nothing
You gotta say something
