[Verse 1]
The boys and the girls
They pass to the corners of the room
Predicted a move, I thought
We’d never change the habits of the old school
With all I’ve ever done
We work the phone
And wait for the moment to come
[Bridge]
But never, never could we remember
[Chorus]
You can’t ask me any way you talk
(Anyway you laugh)
How can I make myself play?
Days race past pass
Do I have to ask?
How should I know if you’ve changed?
[Verse 2]
The years have been kind, although
Up close I couldn’t say for sure
Well, you know I was never good at differences
Kind of it’s safe to say
I’ve never changed
And if you’ve heard the phone before
I don’t want to be a bore
Then what do you suppose we do?
[Bridge]
‘Cause never, never could we remember
[Chorus]
You can’t ask me any way you talk
(Anyway you laugh)
How can I make myself play?
Days race past pass
Do I have to ask?
How should I know if you’ve changed?
[Verse 3]
The boys and the girls, they start
At the end, as they always do
Takin’ a choice
Take it off
I could hear hear us sin
It’s a children’s game
And if the days we have between are spent wonderin’
Then lyin’ out
Should I mind?
[Bridge]
If ever, ever I tried to tell you
[Chorus]
You can’t ask me any way you talk
(Anyway you laugh)
How can I make myself play?
Days race past pass
Do I have to ask?
How should I know if you’ve changed?
