Small Talk — текст песни (Genesis)

Don`t talk back to me, don`t talk back to me
Don`t talk back to me, don`t talk

Going round in circles, hearing too many points of view
Just words to tire me out, small talk I could do without
I would be amazed if you returned to see things my way
Now that you`ve been disrespectful to my sense of pride

Isn`t it a shame that you were lying when you said to me
I was the only one, you and I were meant to be
I expect you`ll never really feel the way that I do
All of this is with regret, I`m sure you will agree

Say something to me, anything at all
I want you to mean what you say
I`ve seen all I want to see, and you mean the world to me
I`ve lived for each moment to be, with you, with you, with you

Small talk, small talk, small talk, small talk

You say I don`t talk enough, that applies to both of us
Don`t try to sound me out, something I could do without
So much goes on inside your head, I often wonder
Have you heard enough to know, there`s nothing left to say

Say something to me, anything at all
I want you to mean what you say
I`ve seen all I want to see, and you mean the world to me
I`ve lived for each moment to be, with you, with you
With you

Small talk, small talk, small talk
It`s all I ever hear
Small talk

It may take some time
But it`ll be alright
