This song was inspired by the book, “Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus”, which elaborates on why relationships may not always work out between men and women due to fundamental psychological differences in the opposite sexes.
[Verse 1]
Boys speak in rhythm, and girls in code
Tell it to me straight, give it to me now
Face forward
Face forward
[Verse 1]
Boys speak in rhythm and girls in code
Tell it to me straight, give it to me now
Face forward
Face forward
[Chorus]
Speaking foreign language, nothing I can translate
Speaking foreign language, nothing I can dictate
You're speaking foreign language
[Verse 2]
Boys speak in rhythm and girls just lie
Tell me how you feel
Come out of the dark
And we can head back home and I'll know where to start
[Chorus]
Speaking foreign language, nothing I can translate
You're speaking foreign language, nothing I can dictate
You're speaking foreign language
Nothing I can translate
You're speaking foreign language
[Bridge]
Where did we go wrong?
We need medication for this miscommunication
Where did we go wrong?
Our conversation's weakened
Conversation's weakened
[Outro]
Boys speak in rhythm and girls in code
Boys speak in rhythm and girls just lie
