Communiqué

Communiqué  by Dire Straits is one of the very first songs I liked when my dad used to play it on the gramophone... usually dad & I never enjoyed similar taste in music. But this one song I found it very foot tapping. Much later as a teenager I realized that perhaps this was a band without much fuss and noise. The sound, be it the guitar or the drums were of minimal distortion. Their themes were pragmatic with a certain amount of mysticism which always managed to calm down my soul and senses in one way or the other…

Lyrics:

They wanna get a statement for Jesus sake 
It's like talking to the wall 
He's incommunicado no comment to make 
He's saying nothing at all 
But in the communique you know he's gonna come clean 
Think what he say, say what he mean 
Maybe on Monday he got something to say 
Communication 
Communique 
Communique 
Maybe he could talk about the tricks of the trade 
Maybe he could talk about himself 
Maybe he could talk about the money that he made 
Maybe he'd be saying something else 
But in the communique you know he's gonna come clean 
Think what he say, say what he mean 
Maybe on Monday he got something to say 
Communication 
Communique 
Communique 
And now the rumors are flying 
Speculation rising 
Say that he's been trying someone else's wife 
Somebody at the airport 
Somebody on the phone 
Says he's at the station and he's coming on the noon 
Then we get the story a serious breeze 
And a photograph taken in the hall 
You don't have to worry with the previous release 
Right now, he's saying nothing at all 
But in the communique you know he's gonna come clean 
Think what he say, say what he mean 
Maybe on Monday he got something to say 
Communication 
Communique 
Communique
