NOBODY LISTENZ

from DEMOS by Rick Berlin

/

about

I guess this souped-up punk piano song is about how much it seems that we talk AT each other, preparing our next thought when the other guy's talking and not hearing much of what he's said. Nothing new here.

lyrics

NOBODY LISTENS

nobody listens
they got too much t say
they're scared if they stop talkin'
that you might jes go away

tik tik tik...tok

talkin in the hallway
talkin on the phone
talkin when they smoke outside
jes tryin' not t be alone

tik tik tik...tok

nobody listens
they got too much t say
injustice collectors
having a real bad day

tik tik tik...tok

could they be quiet
+ listen t someone else?
long enough t know them
+ to forget about themselves?

nobody listens
they got too much t say
they're scared if they stop talkin'
that you might jes go away
