What You Talk

Shit

What did you just say

You had an old supervisor

You have a new supervisor

You play with your cartilage piercing

You're working on green concrete

I chew on a cuticle and pretend to know

What that means

You didn't thank the waiter just then

You have a matching tattoo under your left boob with your best friend

I think of skin

You wear yours like it fits

I slip my fingers into my chilly armpits

Are we slow in this moment or acutely aware

This conversation's going nowhere

This conversation's going nowhere

Nowhere

Nowhere

What do you talk about

When you talk about

Things that you don't

Know anything about

What do you talk about

When you talk about

Things that you don't

Know anything about

What do you talk about

When you talk about

Things that you don't

Know anything about

What do you talk about

When you talk about

Things that you don't

Know anything about

The heater's cooking my neck

You roll another cigarette

You have two big brothers

And a new favourite colour

Green

I taste blood so pick a new finger

You cut a dignified figure but it doesn't suit me

They're turning the lights on

Where the fuck has the night gone

I wanna go dancing but your shoes are too clean

You're speaking faster

My heart's beating harder

I forgot your last name and I'm too scared to ask you

The man of your dreams

You can have him for free

Cos it's Thursday baby

So you better believe that

This conversation's going nowhere

This conversation's going nowhere

Nowhere

Nowhere

What do you talk about

When you talk about

Things that you don't

Know anything about

What do you talk about

When you talk about

Things that you don't

Know anything about

What do you talk about

When you talk about

Do you talk about

When you talk about

Do you talk about

When you talk about

Do you talk about talk

What do you talk about

When you talk about

Do you talk about

When you talk about

Do you talk about

When you talk about

Do you talk about talk
