Almost Insight - Small Talk Lyrics

Here we go again, the same conversations
Scripted pleasantries and social conventions
Yeah, the weather's nice and I just don't care
It's hard to break the ice when I'd rather be elsewhere

Oh no, he's pulling out of a picture of her
It's the second of his seven daughters
And I can't wait to meet the entire flock (not really)
Can't stand this purgatory of meet and greet
Can't really go far when you're stuck on repeat
And that's why I hate small talk

Yes, I've tried the shrimp... what's your name again
I won't remember that, but I don't mean to offend
I'm still in the band - oh you mean my real job
Let's guess, your name is Dick, another certified snob

Sometimes I step aside and pull out my phone
I just need to spend some time on my own
With my thoughts or the coffee shop down the block
Somedays I wish I had a microphone
So I could tell everyone to leave me alone
Because I hate small talk

Yes I know it's what we do (what we do)
It may lead to something nice (something nice)
I'll do it I'll do it I'll do it 'cause I have to (yes you do)
But don't you make me say it twice

Blabla blablabla bla
Blabla blablabla
Blabla blablabla blabla blabla
Bla bla bla
Blabla blablabla bla
Blabla blablabla
Blabla blablabla blabla blabla
