Communication Lyrics

He said that he liked her new dress,
She heard that her hair was a mess
And when he gazed down at her knee,
She thought she was no company
Put a smile before the pillow and the whole charade.
Build a fire in the setting sun.
Pick an olive from an olive tree but leave the branch
It's not for you, so don't you run.

Breakdown
Lay down.

Foxtrot. Uganda, Cat, Knife,
Officers, two men from Fife
The one who they said was berserk
An old English name for a berk
Took a stand in the middle of a sandwich bar.
Took a dozen rolls, to a speeding car
Found an olive in the salad from the sandwich bar
The door ajar, but not our car.

Communication

Communication
Breakdown
Lay down.
They ran to the hills out in Rome
Two valuables wouldn't come home.
And here they'd decide to regroup
Put play to the happening coup

Asked the milkman for lift, in a speeding float.
Took a while to say, in a Spanish way.
Told the stony of a riot on a pleasure boat
A slight delay, yesterday.
