Soulwax - Conversation Intercom lyrics

Time and time again

translation seems to sabotage

the words

you know what is said

is not what is heard

Damn this mean device

It makes a whispering man sound as if he cries

It's the pinnacle of what is typical

CONVERSATION INTERCOM

you hear what I say but

it comes out all wrong

CONVERSATION INTERCOM

you say what I see still

you speak in different tongues

Don't act like a fool

It makes you so uncool and

that's what it does best 'cause if anything

it's just a temper-test

Fill in your own words

yeah

1-800 Dial-to-be-heard

It's the pinnacle

of what is cynical

CONVERSATION INTERCOM

you hear what I say

but it comes out all wrong

CONVERSATION INTERCOM

you say what i see still

you speak in different tongues

clap your hands and you know what to do...

my ears attend to you...

as people listen intently...

can you copy?

do you receive?

do you receive?

Damn this mean device

It makes a whispering man sound as if he cries
