You know how the same word
Has as many sounds as there
Are languages doesn't that mean
We still haven't quite captured
What it's trying to say
Like when you listen
To a foreign language
Grasping a few words here and there
Or notice how it all sounds like
Some kind of strange singing
And speechless we fall back
On pantomime and pointing
Our poor words stranded there
Between music and meaning
Trying to make up their minds
