Lyrics



Conversation Optional

Music and Lyric by David W. Jacobsen

Nothing to say
something to show
in the ring

Somewhere to go
but nowhere to move
in the rink

the rhythm is fast
the time goes slow
and we look

the women come
the women go
talking of
not Michael Angelo


Conversation optional
We shouldn't talk about the weather.
Conversation optional
We shouldn't talk about the government.


The evening flows
the moments pass
and we lose

the body is warm
the looks are cold
in-between

the fashion is new
the look is old
on display

the contents low
the hair is high
and the look
ooh the look


Conversation optional
We shouldn't talk about the weather
Conversation optional
We shouldn't talk about the government
Conversation optional
We shouldn't talk about religion
Conversation optional
We shouldn't talk about music
Conversation optional
We shouldn't talk about our occupations
Conversation optional
We shouldn't talk about fornication
Conversation optional
We shouldn't talk about tomorrow
Conversation optional
We shouldn't talk about today
