Sign Language

You speak to me

In sign language

As I’m eating a sandwich

In a small café

At a quarter to three

But I can’t respond

To your sign language

You’re taking advantage

Bringing me down

Can’t you make any sound?

’Twas there by the bakery

Surrounded by fakery

Tell her my story

Still I’m still there

Does she know I still care?

Link Wray was playin’

On a jukebox I was payin’

For the words I was sayin’

So misunderstood

He didn’t do me no good

You speak to me

In sign language

As I’m eating a sandwich

In a small café

At a quarter to three

But I can’t respond

To your sign language

You’re taking advantage

Bringing me down

Can’t you make any sound?
