Soundog Babylon

Something got me sinking in the bathtub
Thinking how to figure you out
Trying to figure out a way how to open your mouth
When the monologues cut
When the comfort of silence
Kind of scares it back shut
Something got me talking (Got me talk, talk, talking)
Something got me talking (Got me talking about you, and)
Something got me talking
Got me talk, talk, talking
'Bout someone like you, somebody like you
Honey you'd be mad to sit it out
Is your silence making you lonely?
Or is your loneliness making you silent?
Sonny are you thinking anything?
You might chance our way of thinking
If we could only get you talking
Why don't you speak? Speak you fucker
Soundog Babylon
Keeping it on and on
Soundog Babylon
Keeping it on and on
Something got me asking myself
Why you get so uptight
Why you bottle up the feelings
You've been feeling 'til it doesn't feel right
'Til it makes you feel small
'Til your faith in mankind
Is inclined to be minimal
Something got me talking (Got me talk, talk, talking)
Something got me talking (Got me talking about you, and)
Something got me talking
Got me talk, talk, talking
'Bout someone like you, somebody like you
Honey you'd be mad to sit it out
Is your silence making you lonely?
Or is your loneliness making you silent?
Sonny are you thinking anything?
You might chance our way of thinking
If we could only get you talking
Why don't you speak? Speak you fucker
Soundog Babylon
Keeping it on and on
Soundog Babylon
Keeping it on and on
