Fish - Tongues Lyrics
(dick/simmonds/usher/boult)If you really knew how I felt,You wouldnt need to be here askingThose 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 youre speaking in tongues.As we move to a stalemate,You say a contracts a contract& this is unnegotiable,I question your morality, you question my realityYoure speaking in tonguesWe 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 illogicalYoure speaking in tonguesYou swear contradictionsYour tedious monologues, wielding authority,Demanding subservience, demandingI make your sense.Demanding speaking in tongues.(dedicated to rupert perry, md emi uk)
