"You ___ be serious!" (4)

I believe the answer is:

cant

(Other definitions for cant that I've seen before include "Hypocritical talk; slope" , "Lacks ability" , "Hypocritical speech" , "Insincere talk; slope" , "Hypocritical talk sounds unable" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the Family Time, the USA Today and the Newsday.
