I'm not mixing signals as much as I used to
Because I've tried with no success
The reason i'm calling is I think I'm having a breakthrough
But not to confuse you
I owe it to friends
Who say from experience
The politics are dirty
I talk myself into
Just getting things out in the open
Is seeming harder the longer I hold them
I shut off when it's just us
And it's f**ed up
The thing to do now is open my mouth
But awkward is my middle name
And I say I'll go, it's late
I owe it to friends
Who say from experience
The politics are dirty
I talk myself into
I owe it to friends
Who say from experience
The politics are dirty
I talk myself into
Politics are dirty
I talk myself into
