But who can you trust when the walls have ears
Dm                              F                              Dm

We could meet at the zoo where the tiger roams, in a prison of steel

Where the eyes of the world, full of shutters and bugs are upon us now

I've got reds in my bed, I get blues looking out of my window
Dm                             A              F                   Am
And we're never alone, there's a tap on the phone and my pillow

As they cut me away to be born again back to humanity
