THE SCOOP by Sally T

VERSE 1
Who you been talking to, my love
Who’s got your back? Who’s got your front? Who’s by your side
I think I’m under an invisible attack, my love
But then again it could be all in my mind

And we been walkin’ around just a same ol’ samin’
And it pains me to think you’ve been campaigning
Against the things I do
Or maybe I did that to you
Word gets back like a homing pigeon
And no one wants to go around burning bridges
But as far as I can tell
There’s always somebody talking ‘bout somebody else
And …

CHORUS 1
Tell me, baby, what the truth is lately
Oooh oooh oooh
Squeeze me some juice
Hey ey and
Tell me, baby
Who else is crazy
Oooh oh oh oooh
Dish me a scoop

VERSE 2
I haven’t seen you in so long
Oh but your sadness sticky seeps out the cracks
The gap grows wider every day
But it seems as though there’s no turning back
Now I’m a aching to know if I’m something to ya
Try to mind my business but tell me do ya
Have anything to say
I wish you’d throw something my way
I could ask you to care or I could sit here and wait
For the day you decide to participate
But I can’t wait that long
I think it’s safe to say my assumptions were wrong
And …

CHORUS 2

BRIDGE
Time’s sneaking by
And the echoes
Of these secrets we try to hide
Now the dream that once inspired
Is now a nightmare
Inside your mind
So come on and ….

CHORUS 3

about

Oh Pray Tell Winlaw, British Columbia

Oh Pray Tell is us - Sally Titasey and Betty Supple. We are best friends. Sisters of sorts. We met in the mountains when we were just teenagers. The first time we sang together, our harmonies seemed to merge into one voice, larger than the sum of its parts, stirring magic in our bellies and hearts...and we liked it.

Stomp, clap, strum, SING. This is our humble offering. ... more
