It's so insane, now check this out
Well, I heard that one before
Don't want to hear it no more
You've always got a story
You never tell it straight
Maybe you'll get it someday

Your mouth's running
Down the block
I don't want to hear it
You talk and you talk
And you talk and you talk

You keep on talking, talking
When will it ever end?
You keep on talking, talking
Power talk, power talk

Power talk
Now that you've told us your stories
Power talk
I don't believe in a word that you say
Power talk
Now that you've told us your stories
Power talk
I don't believe in a word that you say

You're gonna make it
Make it to the top
Maybe you'll get there someday
But I don't see it, no
Don't see it like that
You are just chewing the fat

Come a little closer
I'll open your eyes
I' gonna tell you a secret
You're not gonna like

Your mouth's running
Down the block
I don't want to hear it
You talk and you talk
And you talk and you talk

You keep on talking, talking
When will it ever end?
You keep on talking, talking
Power talk, power talk

Power talk
Now that you've told us your stories
Power talk
I don't believe in a word that you say
Power talk
Now that you've told us your stories
Power talk
I don't believe in a word that you say

(Gonna make the move)
I ran into an old friend the other day
And he's real poor now
I told him about my new fax machine,
And my yacht, my toupee, my strap-on and my tweed coat
And I told him all about the letter from the queen
Saying I was a great guy
Y'know, it's kinda funny the way my friends looked at myself
Y'know, saying, I just laughed
They never see my big-breasted wife
??? amply-endowed ???, but they believe me
Oh, I got another call, bye

You talk and you talk
And you talk and you

You keep on talking, talking
When will it ever end?
You keep on talking, talking
Power talk, power talk

Power talk
Now that you've told us your stories
Power talk
I don't believe in a word that you say
Power talk
Now that you've told us your stories
Power talk
I don't believe in a word that you say
