Babyshambles - You Talk Lyrics






You talk, you talk a good game
I wish I could talk the same
And a song is just a game
I'm getting good at cheating

That's how you talk
Ah yes, you talk a good game
Won't you teach me the same?
I would love to explain
I love to show your hand and all about

Oh well, I know, I know, I know
I know it's wrong and so and so
So what, I suppose it's got to go out

I never ever said it was clever
I just like getting leathered
Looking for the light
Light behind your eyes

Well, you talk, you talk a good game
I wish I could talk the same
And a song is just a game
I'm getting good at cheating

[Incomprehensible] Utah, remember Utah in the rain
And those little red shoes
And some kid with the blues
Who gets right on your tits
You just grin and bear it

Yeah, I know, I know, I know
I know it's wrong and so and so and so
And so it's got to go out

I never ever said it was clever
I just like getting leathered
I'm looking for the light
Light behind your eyes

Bevan, he drops stones from heaven
L O R D forever
And the love, the love behind your eyes

You talk, you talk a good game
You talk, you talk a good game
You talk, you talk a good game
You talk, you talk a good game

Well, I never ever said it was clever
I just like getting leathered
Looking for the light
Behind your eyes

Bevan, he drops stones from heaven
L O R D forever
And the love behind your eyes

    Since that's obviously ridiculously untrue, I'll go ahead and name some artists from his era that have him beat: Julian Casablancas and Alex Turner.

  43. J.... G....

    awesome ;]

  44. P.... T....

    Awesome xx

  45. J.... T....

    The Libertines, Babyshambles, Pete D, etc., etc., are so underestimated. Much like THE RAMONES back in my day....

    J.... T....

    Pete is a legend!

    J.... T....

    Everyone adores them though. The Ramones as well.

    J.... T....

    I was literally thinking this exact same thing when I opened this video. Pete Doherty himself is especially under-rated.

  46. G.... S....

    love Peter

  47. V.... G....

    love you Pete!!! you are fucking genius<3

  48. V.... M....

    this shit gets my balls tingling holy fuck its amazing i love it!!

    V.... M....

    +Victor Morgan Fuck yeah baby!!

  49. T.... C....

    GO PETE !!!! lOVE yer stuff....

  50. T.... T....

    Peter's a crazy misunderstood poet

    T.... T....

    Shade W not misunderstood. .. we understand him. His music and his lyrics talk to all my body and to my soul....I love him.Drugs or not his just a ducking genius.
    I am sorry of my English isn't perfect... I am French, so...

    T.... T....

    Shade W how old are you?

    T.... T....

    I get him

    T.... T....

    Luv him.. so what

  51. A.... S....

    hate it

    A.... S....

    +Amazen Snooze Good then why the fuck are you listening? I hate rap you dont see me listening to Jay z. You kids are fucking weird these days.

    A.... S....

    I hate you

  52. E.... ....

    The strokes vibe.. really nice

    E.... ....

    +Embo The strokes have Pete's vibe you were close. Pete's work is so much better i cant get in to the NYC private school kid thing, but we dress like we are poor. I like my music a bit more honest.

    E.... ....

    +Toni Paradise So if i born i a family with money i have to sing about expensive cars?? maybe your art is most important than your clothes or your economic status, maybe art is that too, you know, art

    E.... ....

    @neotex555 I dunno I'm biased i go to NYC once a year and i love the city but some of the people just annoy the fuck out of me.  Like i though all new yorkers were busy i'm smoking a joint walking down like 47th and ppl are complaining, theres an open sewer right there WTF!!  The strokes were ok but The Libs and the White Stripes are far better to me.  I'm from Detroit so i saw jack as a local guy these bands all started in the late 90's.  So i hate when ppl think the Libs ripped the strokes off just not true.  I guess economic status should not matter but something about a young band starving creates a great first record which is usually their best work.  Thats why music and art in general is great no best its all subjective.

    E.... ....

    The Strokes hit the scene two whole years before The Libertines did, so there's nothing true about the belief that The Strokes have a Pete Doherty vibe. I also think it's cool and adds to the enigma that is The Strokes that they grew up in super wealthy households yet could care less; rejecting the culture they were born into. I guess we're going to just disagree about whose music is better, but I'll just say that The Strokes are far superior, especially considering that they created the rock-revival/garage-rock scene that defined the early-mid 00s. They changed culture massively not just in music, but in fashion where they were equally impactful. They're why we wore skinny jeans and still do.

    E.... ....

    Toni Paradise Libs wouldn’t exist without the strokes making record labels think rock music was commercially viable...

  53. j.... ....

    PETE FUCKING DOHERTY!!!!

    j.... ....

    HELL YA

  54. A.... M....

    Nice <3

  55. j.... s....

    love this

  56. T.... C....

    That riff is exactly like * The Black Keys - Unknown Brother*

    T.... C....

    @TUDOR COSTINA It's the other way around. This song is older. And better. Much better.

    T.... C....

    You got it the wrong away around there kid. Nice try, so everybopdy that writes a song using a C chord is a rip off? Why do you people try to down play Pete's ability i dont get it. Jealous he can shoot dope, smoke crack, fuck models, become a millionaire and you cant? If you dont like it cool but the Black Keys are good but talk about an un original sound. Listen to some old soul records Dan is a master of ripping people off too, thats music son.

    T.... C....

    +Toni Paradise Do you just float around on here to piss on peoples comments or something? You're fuckin' weird man.

    T.... C....

    @Ryan Beach No do you?  

  57. t.... ....

    This brings back memories... I was 16 when I discovered Babyshambles, alongside with Rakes, We Are Scientists, Modest Mouse, Art Brut and all the others... time flies by insanely fast! Good times back then...

    I love Pete and Babyshamble, so glad he is still making music with them. The new album is just mint! He's also looking a lot healthier which makes me happy. I am just trying to get some attention for my band, Pete Doherty has been a huge influence over me, try searching
    The Stumble and Shake - oh my darling, Oh my dear (Earthquake Version)
    you may be in for a surprise! 

    S.... P....

    When i was at Oxford, in the sixtes, there were three types of people, those who knew all and did nothing, those who worked really hard, and well those who should not have been there.  What category would pete have fallen into?

    S.... P....

    @VisionzOfExcess you can't put people in 3 categories - life isn't that easy

    S.... P....

  85. E.... K....

    There's a comment from someone whose life is so boring he doesn't have anything else to care about than a stupid comment on youtube from three months ago.

  86. W.... ....

    There's a comment only the television addicted 16 and over crowd will get. Way to dumb it down.

  87. O.... M....

    Reminds me of Unknown brother by the Black Keys
