The Walls And The Windows Lyrics - Aceyalone

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 

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 

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 

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 

Surprise 

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

Some are not so obvious and some are self-explanatory 

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 

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 

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' my window open, hoping that I might get a breeze 

But when the wind comes in the eyes 

Come in and eyes don't seem to want to leave 

Because spying eyes by eying the prize 

And eying on your movement 

You can change your wall and windows 

With some building home improvement 

But looky loose they still be trying 

You look inside your window 

The walls will hear it ever single time you voice crescendos 

It's enough to make you tremble, leave you in limbo 

Can it also be simple? Because these are fundamentals 

For the mental, so don't get sentimental 

Because these are not your windows, these wall are really rentals 

They know everything you're into 

And all the business that you tend to 

So keep your windows rolled up 

And don't hold up the wall against the floor 

And while you're window shopping 

Don't bother stopping at my store 

I put a note in the window, but you couldn't read what is said 

So I took a rock and carved it in the glass and it read 

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 

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
