Small Talk

Mapping out the Interstate

My finger prints a figure eight

We come around

We've seen this place before

And climbing up the empire state

You hold my hand and hesitate

A camera shot

We've seen this place before

We're welded in gridlock

We're watching the wall clock

All the literate small talk keeps us sane

We work by the windows

Feels soft where the wind blows

All the literate small talk keeps us sane

In cubicles we simulate

A broken wall a city state

We're lost in files

We've seen this place before

A counterculture elevates

We cross it out we can't erase

A sous rature

We've seen this place before

We're welded in gridlock

We're watching the wall clock

All the literate small talk keeps us sane

We work by the windows

Feels soft where the wind blows

All the literate small talk keeps us sane

Mapping out the Interstate

My finger prints a figure eight

We come around

We've seen this place before

And climbing up the empire state

You hold my hand and hesitate

A camera shot

We've seen this place before

We're welded in gridlock

We're watching the wall clock

All the literate small talk keeps us sane

We work by the windows

Feels soft where the wind blows

All the literate small talk keeps us sane
