My first thought on this song was that it was about a girl who is the product of divorce, and she's watching her parents fight. Maybe I'm putting too much personal experience into that interpretation though.
Another look at it suggests that it's about a dysfunctional couple; someone looking in on them (maybe God, who knows), and saying Hey wait a second, you have to let your wife get a word in, mister. And while you're at it, back out of the fight before you let it escalate to the point of no return, where no one ends up winning, you're both just emotionally exhausted (too much to properly fix this).
