lyrics

That’s the kind of reaction
Lacking any restraint
To indicate satisfaction
Time to faint

Who needs real circumspection?
It's all so up in the air
So far beyond all detection
Savoir faire

It's aces high
What, no reply?

If you want some attention
I’ve got tension to spare
Hope it's not late to mention
I’ll be there?

In this liquid suspension
Mixing sources with care
Forget all acts of pretension
Savoir faire

It's aces high
What, no reply?

Making tea in a tempest
Grabbing meals on the run
They got Elvis in Memphis
But we got fun

Is this struggle for nothing?
Are we “devil may care”?
What’s behind all this cussing?
Savoir faire

It's aces high (3x)
What, no reply?

And the snow it has fallen
Like a lump on a grave
And so Christmas is coming
Time to cave

And the sleigh bells are ringing
Skating the ice in the air
Hear the angels all singing
Savoir faire

Scott Shipley New York

Hails from the northernmost reaches of NY. It's called the North Country and it's beautiful. Any more north and we'd be in Canada. Which is nice too.
