Michael Franks Double Talk
Every time I asked you to be truthful
you lied
And when I lost my temper you cried
Crocodile tears and spoke double talk
It's the same old alibis ans stories again
I redeye there to meet you and then
All you ever give me is double talk
You think that love means cope
Your life is like some daytime soap
Where all the dialogue is just double talk
Well I've got news for you
This little drama's through
'Cause I can't take no more of your
double talk
Your double talk
You're so jive - sometimes I think your
brain was mislaid
You've broken every promise you mad
You ought to see a doctor for double talk
Never mind 'bout all the times we
started again
I redeye there to meet you and then
All you ever give me is double talk
Your brand of kindness smarts
You call me when I'm on the charts
But all you ever give me is double talk
Well I've got news for you
This little drama's through
'Cause I can't take no more of your
double talk
Your double talk
It may come as quite a shock but I'm hip
to your double talk
All you ever give me is double talk
Each time you lie your profile grows -
it looks just like Pinocchio's
And I can't take no more of your
double talk
