Communication is so failable, like an ocean of mixed messages.
lyrics
The Ebb & Flow Of Your Mixed Messages
The ebb and flow, the ebb and flow
The ebb and flow you know of her mixed messages
Reflected in what she says
Can you understand a word
Decipher phrases bordering absurd
Don’t be deceived by what you’ve heard
She’s just speaking with her meaning blurred
The ebb and flow, the ebb and flow
The ebb and flow you know of your mixed messages
Confusion built a fortress
Can’t you hear the whistle blow
Though it’s quittin’ time straight to work you go
It’s a verbal dos-a’-dos
But your body language speaking pure scarecrow
Where did plain and clear go
It remains a mystery
I don’t know yet
But ‘til I do I won’t be free
The ebb and flow, the ebb and flow
You have to know the ebb and flow of your mixed messages
I’m glad my intuition’s here
Taking each half-meaning from opaque to sheer
Maintain a well-trained inner ear
That softly whispers to me “been that, done there”
The ebb and flow, you ebb and flow
She ebbs and flows and there she gooooo-o-o-oes
Back and forth, to and fro, back and forth, to and fro (gooooo-o-o-oes)
Back and forth, to and fro, back and forth, to and fro
Back and forth, to and fro, back and forth, to and fro (gooooo-o-o-oes)
Mixed messages, mixed messages, mixed messages, mixed messages
Back and forth, to and fro, back and forth, to and fro (gooooo-o-o-oes)
Back and forth, to and fro, back and forth, to and fro
Back and forth, to and fro, back and forth, to and fro
Back and forth, to and fro, back and forth, to and fro (gooooo-o-o-oes)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
