Genesis - Inside And Out lyrics

Released on "spot the pigeon e.p.", 1977.

Him "never a word could be heard Not even the sound of a bird Singing it over again, telling a different story Never the same as before See the summer going out by the door" Brother and now that you've paid for those lies Get another disguise "it's twenty years now since our kid came free Oh i remember august '53 But it wasn't quite like they said With that behind you, you can't plan ahead Yes it's the same old story They say you're free, but don't worry What they said's not so They'll never let you go!" Him "never a word could be heard Not even the sound of a bird Singing it over again, telling a different story Never the same as before See the summer going out by the door" Brother and now that you've paid for those lies Get another disguise Out
