Conversation Piece Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Take me back to California
To those crystal neon signs
Where the traveling sensations
Are all blinded by the light

There are eyes in every corner
Bloated brains and rotten smiles
There are coats of many colors
Flying high up in the sky

[Chorus]
Won't you come 'round my way for some conversation, please?
Won't you come 'round my way, it's a conversation piece

[Verse 2]
Look at all these shattered faces
They all look so out of place
They've got nothing left to live for
They'll be dead before they wake

I'd love to know just what you're thinking
Tell me what I ought to do
I will never leave you lonely
You're the one I'm running to
[Bridge]
Get me out of California
Take me off into the blue
We could make it out together
To the place that's calling you


[Chorus]
Won't you come 'round my way for some conversation, please?
Won't you come 'round my way, it's a conversation piece

[Chorus]
Won't you come 'round my way for some conversation, please?
Won't you come 'round my way for some conversation, please?
Oh, won't you come 'round my way, it's a conversation piece

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

A track more aligned with their 2013 album Mechanical Bull, the smooth guitar riff is light and airy, and see’s Caleb reminiscing about his beloved West Coast. Consequence of Sound wrote it was “escapism,” and credited Matthew with the riff and force behind the song.
