No buzz words, fuzzy fudge words,
|
so freeze those goalposts, don't take the Admiral on board.
|
This Hardy's not for kissing¡¦
|
Expression, no explosion,
|
or whispered promises in cliche or in rhyme.
|
Instead let's talk the secret language of birds.
|
|
Right time but the wrong idea.
|
Well, you're making it all sound just the same.
|
Try taking it up a key like that Nightingale
|
still over there in Berkeley Square.
|
|
Do we have problems of communication?
|
There's something I don't know and you can't explain it to me.
|
Let's talk the secret language of birds.
|
|
Step out of the circus now.
|
Learn a new trick and make it stick.
|
Try taking it up a key like that Nightingale
|
still over there in Berkeley Square.
|
|
Finger tracing on misty window:
|
I'm reading loud and clear this salacious semaphore,
|
as you leave me standing at the station.
|
Give it to me ---- the big dawn chorus:
|
no whispered promises in cliche or in rhyme.
|
Let's talk the secret language of birds.
|
|
Right time but the wrong idea.
|
Well, you're making it all sound just the same.
|
Try taking it up a key like that Nightingale
|
still over there in Berkeley Square.
