Well, I can't make any sense of all the letters you write
It's like your pen doesn't work
You're so much better in type
You used to talk all the time and now we don't anymore
Guess we don't have the time
It doesn't work anymore
If the band doesn't work, just get a regular job
The pressure's starting to melt into your shirt
It's a lot
Is there somethin' we're missing?

We go out with our friends
And we sit by the Thames
Goin' fishin'!
I don't need no conversation, please!

Well, we don't die anymore
'Cause we don't smoke anymore
We won't laugh anymore
'Cause we don't joke anymore
Buy a coat and a car
Buy a boat and a chain
Buy a house with a moat
By a beautiful stream
Buy a phone with a plan
Buy a villa abroad
By the Portuguese coast or the Côte d'Azur
And we can go swimmin'!

We go out with our friends
And we sit by the Thames
Goin' fishin'!
I don't need no conversation, please!

Ohh, the songs that they're singing
They're just the kind that we like
You're brushing dust from your knuckles
But I'm too pretty to fight
I've been reeling the line in
I've been playing for days
If the joke isn't landing
Well, I'd be happy to wait

We go out with our friends
And we sit by the Thames
It's all clear now

All those happy smiling faces
I don't need no conversation, please!
If you don't love me
Oh, I don't mind
We'll just sit and watch the tides
