Why could I not talk to you?
I could tell strangers the truth

And why would you not sing along?
Radio plays your favourite song

Go tell your mother
Her favorite son is coming home

Go tell your father
That he was never wrong

Why could I not talk to you?
I could tell strangers the truth

And why would I not sing along?
Radio plays your favorite song

Go tell your mother
Her favorite son's number one

Go tell your father
That you were never wrong

Why could I not talk to you?
I could tell strangers the truth

And then we all clap sing along
Radio plays your favourite song

Go tell your mother
Her favourite son has gone

Go tell your father
That he is number one

Why could I not talk to you?
I could tell strangers the truth
