Song Description
This song is about my frustration over the way people don't simply say what they mean. I can't read your mind - if you want me to pick up on something, you've got to come right out and tell me. Don't get mad at me because I couldn't "figure it out" - Michael Barber.

Lyrics
(verse 1)
draw me a picture
?cause I wanna be sure
that I?m getting everything clear
got my decoder
but I lied when I told her
that I finally saw it all there
(chorus)
say what you mean, mean what you say (3x)
am i the only one
who doesn?t understand my girl?
(verse 2)
misunderstanding
it?s all so demanding
and everything?s complicated
said the right line
but at the wrong time
and i?m so frustrated
(repeat chorus 2x)
(verse 3)
hands on her hips
and she bites on her lips
wondering if she?s that insecure
i said, i?ve seen your best, hon'
now give me the rest
I guess I could have been nicer
(repeat chorus and fade)
