<poem> | <poem>I'm getting stuck in tough conversations | ||
I'm in | 'Bout what my plan is, and how the band is | ||
' | They keep on talking, talking, all this insanity | ||
I'm feeling pressured, don't need a lecture | |||
They keep on talking, talking all this insanity | I only wanna have a real communion | ||
I'm feeling | But I don't know how I can reach out to him | ||
I only wanna have a real communion | |||
But I don't know | |||
I just wanna be friends, but I simply don't have | |||
The gift of gab, oh, the gift of gab | |||
I just wanna be friends but I simply don't have | I just wanna be friends but I simply don't have | ||
The gift of gab | The gift of gab, oh, the gift of gab | ||
No I do not have | No I do not have | ||
The gift of gab | The gift of gab | ||
Then I bring up that controversial article | Then I bring up that controversial article | ||
So many women | So many women can't have everything | ||
The heat is rising as they're sharing their viewpoints | The heat is rising as they're sharing their viewpoints | ||
There's such a high cost, futures have been lost | |||
And then they ask me what I think about it | And then they ask me what I think about it | ||
The truth is that I'm scared to think about it | The truth is that I'm scared to think about it | ||
I just wanna be friends, but I simply don't have | |||
The gift of gab, oh, the gift of gab | |||
I just wanna be friends but I simply don't have | I just wanna be friends but I simply don't have | ||
The gift of gab | The gift of gab, oh, the gift of gab | ||
No I do not have | No I do not have | ||
The gift of gab | The gift of gab | ||
All I wanna do | All I wanna do is hang around with you | ||
Never have to prove anything to you | |||
Never have to prove | |||
Yeah! | Yeah! | ||
I just wanna be friends, but I simply don't have | |||
The gift of gab, oh, the gift of gab | |||
I just wanna be friends but I simply don't have | I just wanna be friends but I simply don't have | ||
The gift of gab | The gift of gab, oh, the gift of gab | ||
No I do not have | No I do not have | ||
The gift of gab | The gift of gab |
