Lyrics

Polari

Oh
Doo-doo-doo-doo

Tell me something
Say what you gotta say
Tell me something
Talk to me, Polari
Say what you gotta say
Tell me something
Talk to me, Polari

Everyone's saying something
Like saying something is saying something
But they're saying nothing 'cause they've got nothing
They're just taking my time and taking my space

Uh
Say what you gotta say
Tell me something
Talk to me, Polari

One, two, three, four

Uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, uh
No, no, no, no

Polari
