| Standing in line at the grocery
|
| A bunch of magazines are looking back at me
|
| They got a Bigfoot Elvis and a UFO
|
| Well it’s on TV so it must be so
|
| We wanna believe we take the bait
|
| We take it hook and line
|
| It’s small talk don’t you know what I heard about so and so
|
| Can’t wait to tell somebody it’s getting better every time
|
| It don’t seem to matter who we talk about or we taking to
|
| It’s just small talk all small talk
|
| Daddy told me when I was young
|
| You got two ears boy and just one tongue
|
| He said the reason why were made that way
|
| We got more to learn then we have to say
|
| I still believe every word he said
|
| But I get caught up sometimes
|
| In small talk don’t you know what I heard about so and so
|
| Can’t wait to tell somebody it’s getting better every time
|
| It don’t seem to matter who we talk about or we taking to
|
| It’s just small talk all small talk
|
| We got a TV show
|
| Talking about a radio talk show
|
| Talking about the way nobody’s talking anymore
|
| And by the time it gets around
|
| It leaps the truth with a single bound |
| And what we need to hear goes out the door
|
| With small talk don’t you know what I heard about so and so
|
| Can’t wait to tell somebody it’s getting better every time
|
| It don’t seem to matter who we talk about or we taking to
|
| It’s just small talk all small talk |
