Body Language

Have you omitted to say

Those rubber bullets don't bounce off you?

Oh, in cry, hear it in stereo

I'll cry after everything is done and dusted

I may convince bold and original

Forgive, what's that for

When you're heading for the dance floor?

I'm here, goin' deep with those climb downs

Branding me a heretic, kind of infant terrible

I risk, I take it to the brink of it

Drop you like a hot potato, everybody turn a hater

If you hear what your body says, learn body language

If I could speak, I'd call your name, oh

If I could hear what your body says, I wouldn't change it

If you speak over to me, oh

Between false and tragedy lies

A human emotion for hoping it'll turn out alright

Ah, dickens, thicker now than chicken soup

And the way that you turn it will take you to the end of the line

But learn, speak it, that body language

Definition of wordplay, conditional love

You can't contemplate, impossible to separate

One from the other, your mother's sister's brother's lover

If you hear what your body says, learn body language

If I could speak, I'd call your name, oh

If I could hear what your body says, I wouldn't change it

If you speak over to me, oh

Tied up for the foreseeable future

Had ended in the seventies science fiction motion picture

Back in the day, don't cut it now anyway

Quite a different animal, don't you'd wish you'd had a mission?

If you hear what your body says, learn body language

If I could speak, I'd call your name, oh

If I could hear what your body says, I wouldn't change it

If you speak over to me, oh

If you hear what your body says, learn body language

If I could speak, I'd call your name, oh
