“Talk!” is a track from The 1975’s self-titled debut album.
The initial rhythm of the song is confusing, then eventually becomes a groovy tune with a showcase of bassist Ross McDonald’s skills.
[Chorus]
Why do you talk so loud?
Why do you talk so?
Why do you talk so loud?
Why do you talk so?
[Verse 1]
Passing grammatical mistakes
Totally wrecked and polemic in the way he talks
Vocal sabbatical, delayed by churning out the same
[Chorus]
Why do you talk so loud?
Why do you talk so?
Why do you talk so loud?
Why do you talk so?
[Verse 2]
We don't got alarms, we just use my dad's arms

"I think you're trying too hard with your lungs in tar
And your kitchen full of pop stars"
[Verse 3]
And I've been thinking lots about your mouth
A conversation superseded by the way he talks
I'd be an anchor, but I'm scared you'd drown

[Chorus]
Why do you talk so loud?
Why do you talk so?
Why do you talk so loud?
Why do you talk so?
[Verse 1]
Passing grammatical mistakes
Totally wrecked and polemic in the way he talks
Vocal sabbatical, delayed by churning out the same
[Outro]
Why do you talk so loud?
('Cause I've been thinking lots about your mouth)
Why do you talk so?
(A conversation superseded by the way he talks)
Why do you talk so loud?
(And I've been thinking lots about your mouth)
Why do you talk so?

Talk! came very late to the table, it came in the pre-production of the album. That’s one of the songs that we actually wrote it in the studio. We were rehearsing before the recording session and then we just started jamming out. We don’t do that very much. A lot of the way that we write and produce...
“Talk!” is the song where I started to write really specifically about what I would call “the barnum things”. “Talk!” was a relatively late addition to the album “The 1975”. I had started to notice that in my writing the more specific I was about myself the more people related to it. This notion had...
