ATMOSPHERE
"Mrs. Interpret"
(Kim Manning / Slug)

(J'ai faim)
(J'ai soif)
(J'ai besoin de)
(A tu)

I could look you in the face for all time
And even if I fall blind I'll still see you in my mind
You got the grace of a raven
It ain't no misbehaving if I tell you that you're the taste that I'm cravin'

You can't imagine all the time and dedication
Trying to find a way to obtain your validation
And sometimes we stayed up until the sunrise
Talking about nothing but that love jive

And if we're gonna keep it legit
I got a little secret that I need to admit
You see, ever since I was a teenage mess
I've had a hard time interpreting the opposite sex

But I need you, girl, that's my word
Now could you please repeat your last few words?
The most beautiful voice I've ever heard
But you might as well have a mouth full of baby birds

(J'ai faim)
(J'ai soif)
(J'ai besoin de)
(A tu)

And then she asked me if I caught a singe thing she said
I involuntarily nodded my head
Honestly I did hear your actual voice
But the words blended in with the background noise

I must've got lost in my mind somehow
And now I'm too far behind to try to figure it out
The fact is I don't know what you're talking about
And I'm distracted by the gymnastics up in your mouth

Truthfully it's not you, it's me
'Cause you're the moon that moves the sea, see
I guess there's a limit to my listening
And then I get dissmissive and treat it as if it's gibberish

And I don't mean to be blunt
'Cause I know we'll probably talk about this for the rest of the month
But my life wouldn't be complete
If I didn't get to misread the shit you speak

(J'ai faim)
(J'ai soif)
(J'ai besoin de)
(A tu)

So what you need?
Yeah, maybe I don't know how to communicate
So what you need?
Nah, I never learned how to ice skate
So what you need?
Go ahead finish your thought, I'll wait
So what you need?

(J'ai faim)
(J'ai soif)
(J'ai besoin de)
(A tu)

(J'ai faim)
(J'ai soif)
(J'ai besoin de)
(A tu)
