Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can't we talk about anything else but love?
Love that launched a thousand ships
Please, let's talk about anything else but love
Love that causes war and famine
[Verse 2]
Can't we speak about real estate?
Love of wife
Watergate
Love of of children
[Verse 3]
Seasonal fluctuation in the prime interest rate
Love of chocolate, you must love chocolate
Everybody loves chocolate, say you do, say it
[Verse 4]
Can't we talk about anything else but?
Love is elation, like an oration, love speaks to us in tongues
Natural as teething, simple as breathing air in the love-starved lungs
Love looks at us and sighs
[Verse 5]
That's all a pack of lies
Love is a fiction like an affliction
Love is ancient curse
Posing contentment, causing resentment
Fulfilment in reverse
Love is a dismal thing
[Verse 6]
Mal, why should we fight? Let's sing
And you know the only thing better than singing?
What?
Singing and dancing
[Verse 7]
Let's not talk about anything else but love
Worth repeating
Let's not talk about anything else but love
Why?
[Verse 8]
Life is fleeting and pleasures come
Pleasures go, love can come and go in one throw
Let's not talk about anything else but love
But love, but love
[Verse 9]
Did I just hear the world love?
Ah-ha
Let's not talk about anything else but love
Of all the scams I've ever heard, love's the one that's most absurd
[Verse 10]
Let's not talk about anything else but love
And look what good it's done, not for me, not my son
Be patient and soon the way be clear
Focus your fare
And troubles all will disappear
[Verse 11]
Let's not talk about anything else but love
It's hard for me to show you see, my mother didn't know you see
Let's not talk about anything else but love
I'm afraid of a touch, I don't like it so much
[Verse 12]
Hold on tight
Say goodnight
But don't dream of starting a fight
Let's not talk about anything else but love
[Verse 13]
Since the dawn of man began
Everyone has had a plan
From Anchorage to Afghanistan
Immortalized by Paul Cezanne
[Verse 14]
Just like an orangutan
With a short attention span
And so we'll do the best we can
By golly and bipartisan
[Verse 15]
Let's not talk about anything old
Please don't leave us out in the cold
Let's not talk about anything else but love
But love
But love
