Lyrics Parliament – Body Language
Text:
Oh, you can shake it to the east
You can shake it to the west
You can shake it the way that express you the best
But remember, when actions is overheard
Body language
And I heard that
Body language
Talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word
Picture ain’t gettin’ it heard
Body language
Body language
Talk to me
Just when you find you’d lend an ear
You find it took your eyes to make it clear
What it is her mouth was trying to say
Oh, when the words got in the way
Talk to me
Just rappin’
(Now picture this)
Talk to me
Just rappin’
(Talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word)
Talk to me, just rappin’
Talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word
Picture ain’t gettin’ it heard
Body language
Body language
Body language
Talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word
Picture ain’t gettin’ it heard
Talk to me
Talk to me
Talk to me
Just rappin’
Talk to me
Talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word (talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word)
Picture ain’t gettin’ it heard (picture ain’t gettin’ it heard)
Singing and shout, tell me what it’s all about
Talkin’ out loud and ain’t sayin’ a word
Please don’t let me be misoverheard
Body language
Talk to me
Body language
Rap to me
Body language
Speak to me
Body language
Slave to me
In body language
Talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word
Baby won’t you speak to me?
Talk to me in body language, girl (talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word)
Talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word
Sing it and shout, tell me what it’s all about
Talkin’ out loud and ain’t sayin’ a word
Please don’t let me be misoverheard
Talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word
Pictures ain’t gettin’ it heard
Just when you thought you had made it clear
You find it took your eyes to make ’em hear
What it was your mouth was tryin’ to say
Oh, when the words got in the way
Baby, won’t ya speak to me
Talk to me (talk!)
In body language (oh!)
Rap to me (rap on me)
In body language (the way you move your sexy body)
Speak to me (speakin’!)
In body language (oh, ho-ho)
Talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word (and the picture’s not gettin’ it heard)
You can shake it to the east, oh-hoho, or
You can shake it to the west (whoo-oh)
The one who funks you the best (whoo-oh, aiii)
Just rappin’
Just rappin’
Talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word
Picture ain’t gettin’ it heard
Talk to me in body language (lay it on me)
Rap to me in body language (why don’t ya speak to me)
Speak to me in body language, talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word
Talk to me in body language (speak!)
Rap to me in body language (why don’t ya speak to me)
Speak to me in body language
Talkin’ ain’t sayin’ a word
