Todd Rundgren - We Understand Each Other Lyrics
We understand each otherBull!You hear some distant drummer playI think we understand each otherHave you no else to offer?Poor boy!I have expenses to defrayI hope we understand each otherWe have a problemYes, but its not that weDont understand each otherOh brother!When they say understandThey gotta mean fairylandFor twenty tons of silverShe sold him into stirAnd when it gets his freedom backHe throws it away over herWhen he says understandHe must mean some other girlIll never comprehendMy putrid taste in menIts not fair I loveEach little hair and heDont even care about meWhen she says understandMust mean some other manOur preconceptions to retainWere obliged to exclaimWe understand each otherWe hear some distant drummer playMust mean we understand each otherOh brother!If theres a problemWell admit itNot that we dont understand each otherEach otherWhen they say understandIts like wendy and peter panHave you ever met somebodyMore self-involved than he?This has got to be a miracleThe man has divine empathyWhat could be wrong with me?I know his reparteeInsincereHes downThere, Im up hereBut whenever hes nearIts some kind of divine empathyWhen they say understandSmells like something else to meWere talking sleight of handEach others mindWe read so wellWe have no time to know ourselvesWe understand each otherThough we dont even know ourselvesWe think we understand each otherThough we dont even know ourselvesWe think we understand each otherThough we dont know ourselvesI hope we understand each otherEach other
