The Walls And The Windows

Aceyalone

Chorus

The walls have ears, the windows have eyes

and a wise man tells no lies

The walls have ears, the windows have eyes

and a dead man tells no lies

Repeat

No lies, no lies, no lies

And a dead man tells no lies

If these walls could talk

They would tell you things you wouldn't believe

These windows have seen sights you couldn't imagine

And it can't be erased by Windex or a coat of paint

Chorus

Surprise!!!

For each and every wall that ever stood it has a story

Some are not so obvious and some are self-explantory

It's padded wall in my laboratory

They're lookin through the keyhole of you dormitory

Meanwhile, up in my observatory, my telescope sees the glory

And it also sees the horror and the gory they speak derogatory

These walls in this hotel room

Tell more tales about fat tales and head

It was heard but never said, instead the walls bleed

Yeah, while they bleeding

You could hear the couples cheating, undercover meetings

Behind these seedy motel walls best believe they had it all

Wreaking balls don't bounce against the wall

to make that building fall

The walls outside my apartment complex

building projects are so complex

Yet they are taken all out of text

Like the wall of Berlin, the wall of 'Nam, the wall of China

And my tag on the wall as a reminder

Chorus

Now of course the eyes are the true windows to the soul

As well as the window to the world's soul

Whether plain glass or stained glass

Every set of eyes has a set of windows with a set of eyes

Now tell me what the world would be

if we did not have windows (We did not have windows)

You would hardly ever catch the criminal or see the swindle

Everyone inside would need A/C when they assemble

A private penitentiary at home is what it might resemble

See my window-pane got so much pain

The glass is busting out the frame

So let the candle kindle in the window as a symbol

I be leavin
