What I Never Told Ya

[Chorus]

Do you remember

What I never told ya?

What I never told ya?

No, you couldn't possibly

So cover your ears

And listen carefully, dear

Oh, do you remember

What I never told ya?

What I never told ya?

No, you couldn't possibly

So cover your ears

And listen carefully, dear

Oh

[Verse 1]

I killed a crook in an alleyway

Down by the boardwalk

I think it was a Monday

Imagine if you can

I buried another man's head in the sand

I could have come clean

I could have confessed

But I held my tongue

You should be impressеd!

And later that month

Some kids dug him up

A pauper еxhuming with fingers and cups

[Chorus]

Oh, do you remember

What I never told ya?

What I never told ya?

No, you couldn't possibly

So cover your ears

And listen carefully, dear

Oh, do you remember

What I never told ya?

What I never told ya?

No, you couldn't possibly

So cover your ears

And listen carefully, dear

Oh

[Verse 2]

I took a match to a mansion

The owner was handsome

But he had a hideous passion

He lured little boys

With candy and toys

I must say he burned with remarkable poise

I could have come clean

I could have confessed

But I held my cards

You should be impressed!

And later that week

His watch and his teeth

Were found in the gutter on Sullivan Street

[Chorus]

Oh, do you remember

What I never told ya?

What I never told ya?

No, you couldn't possibly

So cover your ears

And listen carefully, dear

Oh, do you remember

What I never told ya?

What I never told ya?

No, you couldn't possibly

So cover your ears

And listen carefully, dear

Oh

[Bridge]

We all have a secret we're keeping

A gospel we deem worth deleting

So pull up a chair

And solemnly swear

To never repeat what I'm preaching

We all have a secret we're keeping

A gospel we deem worth deleting

So pull up a chair

And solemnly swear

To never repeat what I'm preaching

[Chorus]

Do you remember

What I never told ya?

What I never told ya?

No, you couldn't possibly

So cover your ears

And listen carefully, dear

Oh, do you remember

What I never told ya?

What I never told ya?

No, you couldn't possibly

So cover your ears

And listen carefully, dear

Oh

[Outro]

Do you remember

What I never told ya?

What I never told ya?

What I never told ya?

Do you remember

What I never told ya?

What I never told ya?

What I never told ya?
