Lyrics


Radio News

I heard it on

The radio news

The mass decision

The mass view


Concealing

Concentration

We spoke then

Of a nation


They seem to be

In my doorway

In my stairway

And in my hallway

In my head

And in my action

The self-inflicted

Contraction


And I can speak

And I can walk

And I can move

And I can talk

And I can speak

And I can walk

And I can move

And I can talk

Yes I can talk

I can talk

I can talk

I can talk

Talk

Talk

Talk

Talk
