TODD RUNDGREN - We Understand Each Other lyrics

Bull!

You hear some distant drummer play

I think we understand each other

Have you no else to offer?

Poor boy!

I have expenses to defray

I hope we understand each other

We have a problem

Yes, but it's not that we

Don't understand each other

Oh brother!

When they say "understand"

They gotta mean fairyland

For twenty tons of silver

She sold him into stir

And when it gets his freedom back

He throws it away over her

When he says "understand"

He must mean some other girl

I'll never comprehend

My putrid taste in men

It's not fair I love

Each little hair and he

Don't even care about me

When she says "understand"

Must mean some other man

Our preconceptions to retain

We're obliged to exclaim

We understand each other

We hear some distant drummer play

Must mean we understand each other

Oh brother!

If there's a problem

We'll admit it

Not that we don't understand each other

Each other

When they say "understand"

It's like Wendy and Peter Pan

Have you ever met somebody

More self-involved than he?

This has got to be a miracle

The man has divine empathy

What could be wrong with me?

I know his repartee

Insincere

He's down

There, I'm up here

But whenever he's near

It's some kind of divine empathy

When they say "understand"

Smells like something else to me

We're talking sleight of hand

Each other's mind

We read so well

We have no time to know ourselves

We understand each other

Though we don't even know ourselves

We think we understand each other

Though we don't even know ourselves

We think we understand each other

Though we don't know ourselves

I hope we understand each other

Each other
