Anyone Can Tell - Crowded House

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 you don’t want to know

But the truth is still a valuable thing

Don’t get caught with your pants down baby

This world the criminal sing

There is another world waiting

But anyone can tell

Anyone can tell

Anyone can tell that I’m not lying

You can hide your face

Pull it 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

You can change your shape

'Cos you can escape the lie forever

Anyone can tell

Anyone can tell
