“TalkTalk” is the third single from Eat the Elephant. It is a commentary on hypocrites who talk holier than thou, but do nothing to actually help people. The title is a play on the popular phrase “Talk the talk, walk the walk” meaning to follow through your words with actions.
[Verse]
You're waiting

Try walkin' like Jesus
Sit and talk like Jesus
Try walkin' like Jesus
Try braving the rain
Try lifting the stone
Try extending a hand
Try walkin' your talk or get the fuck out of my way
