Telephone - The Shadowboxers

It’s just talk

Tell me what you mean even if you mean to tell me off

Come and tell me off

It’s just talk

Don’t mean anything if you don’t believe

What you mean to say

Come and tell me straight, hey

Baby I just want to believe you

But I know that everything will be see through

When you see the truth, see the truth

You know this ain’t you

There ain’t any weight in your words

And I ain’t lying when I say that it hurts me

No this ain’t you, ain’t you

You know this ain’t you

Words just don’t get it

You talk them on and on

To drag me along

It’s like you know that I’ll keep calling

Feels like I’m twelve years old playing telephone

Don’t mean half the shit you’re saying

That would’ve been nice to know

Yeah that would’ve been nice to know

So fuck you and this game you’re playing

And the string that you put me on

Yeah the string that you put me on

It’s just talk

See we make a plan then you go and stand me up and use

Some fake excuse

It’s just talk (talk)

And the worst thing is that I know that you could follow through

If you wanted to (whatchu gonna do?)

Baby I just want to believe you

But I know that everything will be see through (everything)

When you see the truth, see the truth, (uh)

You know this ain’t you

There ain’t any weight in your words

And I ain’t lying when I say that it hurts me

No this ain’t you, ain’t you

You know this ain’t you

Words just don’t get it

You talk them on and on

To drag me along

It’s like you know that I’ll keep calling

Feels like I’m twelve years old playing telephone ('cuz I know you)

Don’t mean half the shit you’re saying (shit you’re saying)

That would’ve been nice to know

Yeah that would’ve been nice to know

So fuck you and this game you’re playing (game you’re playing)

And the string that you put me on

Yeah the string that you put me on

Huh… yeah

You can talk

You can talk

Words just don’t get it (get it)

You talk them on and on (on and on and on)

To drag me along

It’s like you know that I’ll keep calling

Feels like I’m twelve years old playing telephone
