"What I Never Told Ya" lyrics
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
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 impressed!
And later that month
Some kids dug him up
A pauper [?] with fingers and cuffs
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
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
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
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
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
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?
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
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

Oh, do you remember
What I never told ya?
What I never told ya?

Oh, do you remember

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?
