Crowded House — Anyone Can Tell

I dream of a place that's hedged with roses With a man in the middle don't talk in riddles You get hung on every single word Some call it high, some call it low And I hear about things they don't want to know But the truth is still a valuable thing Don't get caught with your pants down, baby In this world the criminal sing There is another world waiting But anyone can tell (They can tell) Anyone can tell (They can tell) Anyone can tell that I'm not lying You can hide your face (Hide your face) Pull it into shades (Into shades) 'Cos you can't escape the lie forever I dream of a place that's overrun by children And the Lord is in the kitchen Do your work and you'll get your rewards 'Cos what you are is all that really matters What is left you can easily scatter On the ground a head covered in mud Don't step on my principles baby In spite of what you have done One day you will have the wisdom I will tell you Everything straight Anyone can tell that I'm not lying You can hide your face (Hide your face) You can change your shape (And your shape) 'Cos you can't escape the lie forever Anyone can tell (tell) Anyone can tell (tell)
