lyrics: 

I looked at you last night
I did not recognise your face
You smiled at me last night
I don't know how much more I can take
I'm sick of all this small talk
Going round In circles, it's driving me insane
Sick of all this small talk
Hours and hours and nothing's changed
Well, I'll tell you, I've never felt so much.

You screamed at me last night
But you just ignored my cries
You smiled at me last night
Well, I don't know how much more I can take
I'm sick at all this small talk
Being Ignored, well it's driving me insane
Sick of all this small talk
Hours and hours and I'm still to blame
Well I'll tell you I've never felt so much.

We talked at each other last night
We might as well have saved our breath
You aimed some words at me last night
It's a shame your ears don't
work as well as your mouth
Well I’m sick at all this small talk
Going round in circles, it’s driving me insane
Sick at all this small talk
Hours and hours and nothing’s changed
Well I'll tell you, I've never tell so much pain.

lyrics: 

I’m walking over the Chinese line
The saki here tastes better than any french wine
I’m looking over the Berlin wall
There’s nothing here except a joker and a fool

We’re playing war games
Everyone’s playing war games

I’m driving in my Japanese car
I’m in the cinema watching american sci-fi
I’m looking an Indian brave
It’s too late so find another race to slave

We’re playing war games
Everyone’s playing war games
