[Verse 1]
I can't ever pay attention
To anything you ever say to me
It's an awful affliction
Don't know why
It's just never come naturally
Apologies

[Verse 2]
Small talk on the bus
Wondering
How do some people talk so much?
Small talk at the Smell
Talk so small
You'd need a microscope to discern much at all
And just as well

[Chorus]
'Cause I can't hold a conversation
I can't even pay attention

[Verse 3]
Nothing in common
I can't even remember
What I'm interested in
My concentration weakening
That's reverting back to myself again
You understand?
[Chorus]
'Cause I can't hold a conversation
I can't even pay attention
I can't hold a conversation
I can't even pay attention
I can't hold a conversation
I can't even pay attention
I can't hold
I can't pay attention
