My Photo In the Newspaper - Kate Miller-Heidke

I’ll take a cappuccino

Lots of froth please, for the photo

Yes he is from the newspaper

He doesn’t want anything, do you Dave?

No, I don’t mind the smoke

Just don’t ask those probing questions

I do not have to sing today

Everything’s going to be alright

But Dave, why do I always order

Whenever we go out somewhere to eat

Surely you have some kind of opinion?

I mean

You have opinions on every other thing

And things look much better in my head

Your perfect body doesn’t make me scared

And you’re dressed all in black and white

But I see color with my eyes shut

Fool

So I’m not straight with you

It’s 'cause of the interview

Why do want to talk with me anyway?

I don’t have anything to tell you

But Dave, why’s it always so awkward

Whenever we go out somewhere to eat?

And why do you get to ask all the questions?

Because I’d like to ask you about a couple of things

And when you ask me a harder question

I always know exactly what you’re getting at

But just one simple question

I could not answer that
