You can't hear it. The phrase is "can't you see the writing on the wall." It's a metaphor suggesting that you're not seeing the obvious answer to something.

I think you mean "see/read the handwriting on the wall". It's an idiom or expression...To read the writing on the wall means that there are obvious signs of an outcome before it happens.
Example:
I should have read the writing on the wall when I bought this house. (It's cute but it's falling apart and it's old.)

the same quote for the proof is in the pudding or if it walk like a dog bark like a dog than it is a dog yes these are old folks saying
and what it means is the truth is in your face the facts can be seen felt tasted or heard!

You can't hear it, you can only "see" it
