We understand each other   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
