Talk Me Some Sense
[Chorus]
Talk me some sense, talk me some sense
Put a song of love and laughter on your face
Talk me some sense, talk me some sense
'Cause the way you're talking now is a disgrace
[Verse 1]
I've heard enough o' your talk about the world that is to be
You say it's sick and sinful and that any fool should see
And you sing songs of agitation and using funny rhymes
The whole new trend and your preaching friend is a great big waste of time
[Chorus]
Talk me some sense, talk me some sense
Put a song of love and laughter on your face
Talk me some sense, talk me some sense
'Cause the way you're talking now is a disgrace
[Verse 2]
Just call me illiterate or any other name
But no matter how you bug me I'll tell you without shame
Don't know where your world is but it sounds quite a mess
But here on earth we waste our time on things like happiness
[Chorus]
Talk me some sense, talk me some sense
Put a song of love and laughter on your face
Talk me some sense, talk me some sense
