We Can Talk — текст песни (Band, The)

We can talk about it now
It`s that same old riddle only starting from the middle
I`d fix it but I don`t know how
Well, we could try to reason but you might think it`s treason
One voice for all
Echoing across the hall
Don`t give up on father clock
We can talk about it now
Come, let me show you how
To keep the wheels turnin` you`ve got to keep the engine churnin`
Did you ever milk a cow
I had the chance one day but I was all dressed up for Sunday
Everybody, everywhere
Do you really care
Pick up your heads and walk
We can talk about it now
It seems to me we`ve been holding something underneath our tongues
I`m afraid if you ever got a pat on the back
It would likely burst your lungs
Woh, stop me, if I should sound kinda down in the mouth
But I`d rather be burned in Canada than to freeze here in the south
Pulling that eternal plough
We`ve got to find a sharper blade or have a new one made
Rest awhile and cool your brow
Don`t need it, no need to slave, the whip is in the grave
No salt, no trance
It`s safe now to take a backward glance
The leaves have turned to chalk
We can talk about it now
We can talk about it now
