歌词
[Intro] [Verse] Midnight at the Wash-n-Go Bulbs are flickering low Sparrows in the metal vent Silver coins are all spent Harpsichord notes start to dance Lost in a detergent trance I see a ripple in the steam Or is it just a soapy dream? [Pre-Chorus] Dryer hums a flat B-side Where the missing cotton hide I see a movement in the lint A ghostly glow, a woolly hint [Chorus] Oh, the socks are talking back (Talking back) Floating round the laundry rack (Laundry rack) Trading tales of Tuesday nights Underneath the neon lights One mentions how you smelled like tea And how you’d always leave with me But you forgot to sort the blues Now I’m the one with nothing to lose [Verse] A single argyle tells a joke About the coffee that you broke The left-foot tube is feeling blue Recalling walks we took with you They whisper 'bout the park in May Before you turned and walked away Now they’re just threads in the machine The saddest ghosts I’ve ever seen [Chorus] Oh, the socks are talking back (Talking back) Floating round the laundry rack (Laundry rack) Trading tales of Tuesday nights Underneath the neon lights One mentions how you smelled like tea And how you’d always leave with me But you forgot to sort the blues Now I’m the one with nothing to lose [Bridge] Mellotron flutes begin to swell Inside this soapy carousel I see your sweater in the heap A promise that I couldn't keep Darks and lights are all a mess Just like my heart, I must confess Spinning round and round again Searching for where we began [Solo] [Chorus] Oh, the socks are talking back (Talking back) Floating round the laundry rack (Laundry rack) Trading tales of Tuesday nights Underneath the neon lights One mentions how you smelled like tea And how you’d always leave with me But you forgot to sort the blues Now I’m the one with nothing to lose [Post-Chorus] Spinning round Lost and found In the suds Cotton buds (Harmony stacks rising) Ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah [Outro]
