Lyrics
[Refrain]
Just a little bit of light banter
And then we say good night
Just a little bit of light banter
And then we turn off the light
Just a little bit of light banter
And then we say good night
Just a little bit of light banter
And then we turn off the light
[Verse 1]
Each day is a day of sorrow
We each bemoan our plight
But night is a different story
And oh, it feels oh, so right
It’s a really, really deep connection
We do it every night
With a little bit of light banter
And then we turn off the light
[PreChorus]
The morning does arrive
Then the heavy subjects thrive
And from every mouth you see
Well, no, not from you and me
But from everybody else
They’re discussing ways to wealth
Rising crime and destiny
It is not for you or me
[Chorus]
It’s a little bit of light banter
And then we say good night
Just a little bit of light banter
And then we turn off the light
Just a little bit of light banter
We’re so in harmony
That speaking in light banter
It comes to us easily
[Verse 2]
We may talk about art and music
Or movies without guns
Or knives or assorted weapons
We’ll chat until we are done
There’s comfort in always knowing
That we will never fight
Just keep to the lighter issues
And then you turn off the light
[PreChorus]
When morning does arrive
Then the heavy subjects thrive
And from every mouth you see
Well, no, not from you and me
But from everybody else
They’re discussing ways to wealth
Rising crime and destiny
It is not for you and me
[Chorus]
It’s a little bit of light banter
And then we say good night
Just a little bit of light banter
And then we turn off the light
Just a little bit of light banter
We’re so in harmony
That speaking in light banter
It comes to us easily
[Bridge]
The neighbours are really nosy
What’s going on in there?
It’s none of their damn business
Our attitude, laissez faire
There’s comfort in always knowing
[PreChorus]
That day will turn to night
And a little bit of light banter
And then we turn off the light
Light light banter
Light light banter
Light light banter
Light light banter
Light, light banter
Light, light banter
Light, light banter
Light, light banter
Feels right, banter
Feels right, banter
Feels right, banter
Just keep it light
[Outro]
It’s a little bit of light banter
And then we say good night
Just a little bit of light banter
And then we turn off the light
