lyrics
(a microwave beeps three times) We eat off paper plates these days No dishes means no dish to throw The TV covers what we don't say We've got a hundred channels of no (no, no) And I know you're counting exits I've been counting them too (one... two...) So say it! Say it loud! Say it like you mean the fire! Say it! Say it now! Silence is the slowest liar Say it! Say it! Say it! Say it — or I will (say it, say it) Your sister called, I heard your half Fine, we're fine, yeah, he's right here I've never heard a colder laugh Serve it up with the plastic silverware (we're fine, we're fine) So say it! Say it loud! Say it like you mean the fire! Say it! Say it now! Silence is the slowest liar Say it! Say it! Say it! Say it — or I will Remember when we broke that bowl Dancing dumb in the kitchen? (years ago, years ago) We kept the pieces in a jar Like proof that we were rich then SAY IT! Say it loud! Say it like you mean the fire! Say it! Say it now! Silence is the slowest liar Say it! Say it! (the microwave beeps again) (nobody gets up)
