Broken-down communication

Tangled lines causing confusion

Seems we’ve lost a good connection (Eph 4: 26)

Cutting short our conversation (Prov 15: 23)

Broken-down communication

Tangled lines causing confusion (2Cor 6: 7)

We can’t read minds so the solution

Is you’ve got to say what’s on your mind (Col 4: 6).

You’ve got to say what’s on your mind (Eph 4: 26)

If you do not, it would be a crime (Eph 4: 27)

To bridle your tongue through the passage of time

It will ferment like a bitter wine (Prov 12: 18)

And if there is no one in whom you confide (James 5: 16)

The pressure will keep building up inside (Prov 15: 1)

You better prepare for the rising tide (Prov 18: 21)

From this explosion no man can hide (Ecc 9: 17 & Eph 4: 29)

I used to be tight with them (Psalm 41: 9)

But then me a fight with them (Psalm 41: 7)

And quarrel all night with them (Psalm 35: 1)

So things nah gone right with them

I used to be strong with them and sing out a song with them

(Psalm 55: 12−14)

But things them gone wrong with them, So mi nah go-long with them

(Psalm 1: 1)

I used to be right

And then I’d be wrong

Sometimes I’d be weak

Then times I’d be strong

So full of pride-And then knocked down (1Pet 5: 5−6)

Why can’t we all just get along?

Why can’t we just get along?

Well you’ve to tell me what is wrong (Prov 25: 11)

I can’t figure out why your face is so long

I know you hold in your feelings so strong

But please just tell me what’s goin' on (Ecc 3: 7)

Because miscommunication cause assumption and misinterpretation--you

draw the wrong conclusion

So tell me if I’m truly your friend (Eph 4: 26)

This guessing game has to end.

Well you’ve got to say

You got to say

What’s on your mind (Prov 15: 1)

I used to be good with them (Psalm 55: 12−13)

And eat up a food with them

But things them gone rude with them

Me fight the whole brood of them (Psalm 5: 9)

I used to be cool with them

And sit in a school with them (Psalm 55: 14)

But things them turn cruel With them

So me nah-go fool with them

I used to be right

And then I’d be wrong

Sometimes I’d be weak

Then times I’d be strong

So full of pride (1Peter 3: 8)

And then knocked down (Eph 4: 2)

Why can’t we all just get along?

You’ve got to say

You got to say

What’s on your mind (Ecc 3: 7)
