The Art of Conversation Songtext
von Leo Sidran

A simple statement made
A thoughtful commentary
Is all that is required
To establish a rapport

A clever turn of phrase
From your vocabulary
Ingenuine desire
To know a little more

No matter what you say
Or your preoccupation
You can practice every day
The art of conversation
The art of conversation

Ping, the buzz, the zap
The rush of validation
Remember, it′s a trap
To try to draw you in


So to cut through all the noise
Just sit through all the static
Put away the toys
Settle and begin

No matter what your age
Or your affiliation
Let yourself engage
In the art of conversation
The art of conversation

'Scuse me while I take this call
Pardon me, my darling sweet
Just a sec while I respond
To this last outrageous tweet

And anything you say
In any generation
It happens every day
The art of conversation
The art of conversation
The art of conversation
The art of conversation
