Speaking Tongues |
| I’ll tell you all a story 'bout a man who isn’t here |
| Who had a pocket full of chemicals, some cigarettes and beer |
| I went out to Ibiza running from the pouring rain |
| I drank a poco loco and I’d never be the same |
| I met up with some boys, they called themselves the diamond dogs |
| They were either on the dancefloor or dealing in the bogs |
| And a reformed gangster got me and he said that he found God |
| He looked me in the eyes and he started speaking tongues |
| Speaking tongues, speaking tongues |
| Everybody on the island speaking tongues |
| Speaking tongues, speaking tongues |
| Everybody on the island speaking tongues |
| Everybody’s saying take that, take that |
| And I’m about to do exactly that-ah |
| And I’m the cheeky fucker at the back-ah |
| Before a disco biscuit disco-nap |
| In Balearic sunshine I went out for a swim |
| But I heard they’d sent a posse to the rocks to do me in |
| But I met some friends with faces who were pretty mighty men |
| They told me «if they come for you my brother |
| We will go for them» |
| I whistled down a taxi just to save us all some grief |
| The taxi man had weed and pills he’d bought from the police |
| He’d seen me on the TV, said he didn’t like my songs |
| It’s the only sense he made 'cause then he started speaking tongues |
| Speaking tongues, speaking tongues |
| Everybody on the island speaking tongues |
| Speaking tongues, speaking tongues |
| Everybody on the island speaking tongues |
| Ahhh, Ahhh |
| Everybody’s saying take that, take that |
| And I’m about to do exactly that-ah |
| And I’m the cheeky fucker at the back-ah |
| Before a disco biscuit disco-nap |
| I met a girl from Preston who wanted sex right there and then |
| She led me to a hotel but they wouldn’t let me in |
| I begged and I pleaded with the man who owned the place (come on, man!) |
| Eventually he’d had enough and punched me in the face |
| I made a promise to that gangster |
| That I would not commit to another night on the white or I’d have to deal with |
| it |
| But I had a poco loco, mescaline coming on strong |
| I really couldn’t help it, man, I started speaking tongues |
| Speaking tongues, speaking tongues |
| Everybody on the island speaking tongues |
| Speaking tongues, speaking tongues |
| Everybody on the island speaking tongues |
| Speaking tongues, speaking tongues |
| Everybody on the island speaking tongues |
| Speaking tongues, speaking tongues |
| Everybody on the island speaking tongues |
| Everybody’s saying take that, take that |
| And I’m about to do exactly that-ah |
| And I’m the cheeky fucker at the back-ah |
| Before a disco biscuit disco-nap |
| Everybody’s saying take that take, that |
| And I’m about to do exactly that-ah |
| And I’m the cheeky fucker at the back-ah |
| Before a disco biscuit disco-nap |
