Time and time again

Translation seems to sabotage

the words

You know what is said

Is not what is heard

Damn this mean device

It makes a whispering man sound as

if he cries

It's the pinnacle of what is cynical

{Chorus:}

CONVERSATION INTERCOM

You hear what I say but

it comes out all wrong

CONVERSATION INTERCOM

You say what I see still

you speak in different tongues

Don't act like a fool

It makes you so uncool and

that's what it does best

'cause if anything

it's just a temper-test

Fill in your own words

Yeah

1-800 Dial-To-Be-Heard

It's the pinnacle

of what is typical

{Chorus}
