lyrics
Everybody talks about the weather
If you guess it right geez you must be clever
Everybody talks about the news
Be careful what you say not to give away your views
Everyday chitchat
What’s it all about
I’ve got nothin’ to say
But I’ll say it anyway
Everybody talks about expense
Always an increase in the budget for defence
Everybody talks about their holiday
Sit up straight tray table away
Everyday chitchat
What’s it all about
I’ve got nothin’ to say
But I’ll say it anyway
Talking to a stranger just to be polite
wishing I’d stayed home with toast and vegemite
Staring into space just pretending to listen to a political party with no opposition
Did you hear young Sarah, she got into law school
Tony's only son made the list to play for Liverpool
Its only 10am you’re asking what’s for dinner
If you weren’t that concerned maybe you’d be thinner
Everyday chitchat
What’s it all about
I’ve got nothin’ to say
But I’ll say it anyway
Say it anyway
Say it anyway
Say it anyway
