Talking Turkey - Electric Six

You get the hotel, I’ll get the box of wine

No sadder words have been spoken since the dawn of time

When we were young we never think that it would come to this

Because you only get one shot, I took my shot and missed

She said «you just keep it still, love

I’ll get the cameras going»

I’m still amazed at the things to keep my debt from growing

She says «we've got some sort of symbiotic relationship»

And for our purposes she says she finds me well equipped

(She's barking up my tree and bouncing on my knee)

Like some sort of little baby

(She's talking turkey, smoking my jerky)

I guess I’m in the marker for what she’s hawking

Build some more shelves because we’re gonna keep stocking

We can talk turkey til the turkey starts talking to me

Her stomach’s bigger than my eyes

(Happy Thanksgiving, baby)

She smothers me inside

This time I daren’t forget the gravy

She says «I'll just freshen up now

I’m expecting some more friends»

And it’s becoming clear to me

There’s more filth around the bend

She said I’m too for (?) for her kind of internet

And she always gets everything that she sets out to get

(She's teaching birds and bees and always crushing me)

Like a leather monstrosity

(she's talking turkey, smoking my jerky)

Better get the door cause I hear your friends knocking

Turn around sister and just keep walking

We can talk turkey til the turkey starts talking to me

She’s shaking her thighs

(You really know how to treat a lady)

She’s smothers me and dies

Happy Thanksgiving, baby

Happy Thanksgiving, baby

Happy Thanksgiving, baby

Happy Thanksgiving, baby

Baby
