Songtext Speak like a child The Style Council

Speak like a child

Your hair hangs in golden steps
Youre a bonafide in every respect
You are walking through streets that mean nothing to you
You believe youre above it and I dont really blame you
Maybe thats why you speak like a child;
The things youre saying like Im so free and so wild
And I believe it when you look in my eyes;
You offer me a life, and never lies
Least only the kind to make me smile

Your clothes are clean and your mind is productive
It shops in store where only the best buy
Youre cool and hard, and if I sound like a lecher
Its probably true,
But at least theres no lecture

I really like it when you speak like a child
The crazy sayings like Im so free and so wild
You have to make a bargain with me now
A promise that you wont change somehow
No way, now how

Spent all day thinking about you
Spent all night coming to terms with it
Time and conditions are built to tame
Nothing lasts with age, so people say
But I will always try to feel the same

I really like it when you speak like a child
I really like it when you speak like a child
The way you hate the homely rank and the file
The way youre so proud to be oh, so free and so wild

I really like it when you speak like a child
I really like it when you speak like a child
I really like it when you speak like a child
The way youre so proud to be oh, so free and so wild
