Elephant Talk

This is a song by a band called King Crimson. I found it particularly ambient and interesting. And when I checked out the lyrics, it was all the more amusing. Here it is.

Talk, it's only talk
Arguments, agreements, advice, answers,
Articulate announcements
It's only talk

Talk, it's only talk
Babble, burble, banter, bicker bicker bicker
Brouhaha, boulderdash, ballyhoo
It's only talk
Back talk

Talk talk talk, it's only talk
Comments, cliches, commentary, controversy
Chatter, chit-chat, chit-chat, chit-chat,
Conversation, contradiction, criticism
It's only talk
Cheap talk

Talk, talk, it's only talk
Debates, discussions
These are words with a D this time
Dialogue, dualogue, diatribe,
Dissention, declamation
Double talk, double talk

Talk, talk, it's all talk
Too much talk
Small talk
Talk that trash
Expressions, editorials, expugnations, exclamations, enfadulations
It's all talk
Elephant talk, elephant talk, elephant talk.


This song appeared in their 1981 album 'Discipline'. There are some more great songs on this record. Unfortuntely I could'nt find a link to the song. However there are links for their albums. Here is one of them. Well most of the links dont work, but the Discipline link works.
