Lyrics

VERSE
We'd both been there before; we knew all the trap doors
We couldn't stop knowing how to relate
The real bottom line is everything will be fine
Just as long as we communicate

VERSE
Communication forestalls aggravation
Even when one changes ways
But changing the equation can mean conflagration
If communication gets lost in the haze

CHORUS
Life won't be perfect and discord will surface, I know
When discord arises, let's talk compromise, let words flow
If you don't agree with me, I guess I just can't make you see

VERSE
Marriage statistics can depend on linguistics
So you'd better brush up on how to talk
Communication stops build-up situations
Otherwise our demise will be all your fault

Repeat CHORUS/VERSE
Communication makes life a vacation
When you agree at the end of debate
But if the talking it stops, everything else will flop
And don't expect to continue to co-habitate

Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
Now I don't know why you think I should just pack up and go
