Everywhere I go, people smoke talking, telling each other things they already know.Criticize the weather, there's nothing better to do than to stand on the last step, saying nothing's new.People on the corner, talking a lot, the sun is burning down, you hear them say that it's hot.Listen to the gossip, listen to that sound, people saying nothing, saying it's all right.Smoke talking, smoke talking, standing at the bar.People are drinking, they may be talking, they're suddenly not thinking.Another fight, another problem, safety at the way.The subject doesn't matter, the argument's the same., sport, and religion, politics too.The conversation deepens, the more they consume.Listen to the gossip, listen to that sound.People saying nothing, saying it's all right.Smoke talking, smoke talking, smoke talking.Smoke talking., sport, and religion, politics too.
