I seen you in your pajamas
|
Drinking coffee at the House of Pies
|
You was flipping for the check
|
And talking like your tongue was paralyzed
|
You were saying something
|
That I don't understand
|
Bout looking other places
|
While you're holding my hand
|
Let's stop
|
Let's not
|
Talk shop
|
In front of all these guys
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Let's not
|
Talk shop
|
Shop talk
|
Shop talk is talking something
|
That you don't realize
|
|
Loose lips sink ships, shake hips
|
Bad tips draw spies
|
I want you when I can get you
|
But you only want me on the rise
|
Well I thought I had your number
|
But your number's too loud
|
Now you're standing on the table
|
And we're drawing a crowd
|
Let's stop
|
Let's not
|
Talk shop
|
In front of all these spies
|
