Tongues |
If you really knew how I felt |
You wouldn’t need to be here asking |
Those questions |
Those irritating questions, moving in metaphors |
Speaking in tongues |
Your gunboat diplomacy |
You accuse me of heresy, of being irreverent |
My opinions irrelevant, when I smile at your smiles |
When you’re speaking in tongues |
As we move to a stalemate |
You say a contract’s a contract |
& this is unnegotiable |
I question your morality, you question my reality |
You’re speaking in tongues |
We are speaking in tongues |
Am I deaf because I cannot comprehend? |
Though I try I just cannot understand |
Your entrenched opinions |
On the border of arrogance |
Dug in against the compromise |
A position indefensible, your actions illogical |
You’re speaking in tongues |
You swear contradictions |
Your tedious monologues, wielding authority |
Demanding subservience, demanding |
I make your sense |
Demanding speaking in tongues |
(Dedicated to Rupert Perry, MD EMI UK) |
