TUNESMITH TUESDAY - "The Walls Have Ears" by Elvis Presley

"The Walls Have Ears"

(from "Girls! Girls! Girls!")

The walls have ears, 

Ears that hear each little sound you make

Every time you stamp, throw a lamp, 

And every cup and dish you break

But they can't hear a kiss 

Or two arms that hold you tight

So come on baby, don't fight tonight

The walls have ears, 

Better think before you fling that shoe

If you part my hair with a chair, 

They'll spread the news to Timbuktu

But they can't hear a kiss 

Or two arms that hold you tight

So come on baby, don't fight tonight

Jets can fly, fast and high, 

Rockets can go even faster

But they can't catch 

Or even match 

Sound traveling through plaster

The walls have ears, 

Ears that hear each little sound you make

Every time you stamp, throw a lamp, 

And every cup and dish you break

But they can't hear a kiss 

Or two arms that hold you tight

So come on baby, don't fight tonight

Just dim the light

Don't fight tonight
