New Language

Gotta write a new language
so I can espress where I’m at
write a whole new language
that’s that.

It’s becoming unbearably clear
as my reckoning day draws near
I’m a mumbling geek, my voice is weak
I need new words to speak
my verbal aplomb is all but gone
I want a new lexicon.

Gotta talk a new language
so I can get back with you
talk a whole new language
coocoocajoo.

We’re becoming unspeakably mute
we’re disparate and desolute
we’re startin’ to creek, our voice is weak
we need new words to speak
climb up a rung and have some fun
you’re gonna love my brand new tongue.

Gotta learn a new language
so I can hear what you said
learn a whole new language
in my head.

You’re growing untreatably old
my love is not so bold
it’s perfectly clear I need new ears
there’s stuff I gotta hear
hold back the tears and pull me near
I’m growing deaf with fear.

Talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk,
TALK, TALK.
