No Hiding Place - Elvis Costello
In the not very distant future When everything will be free There won't be any cute secrets Let alone any novelty You can say anything you want to In your fetching cloak of anonymity Are you feeling out of breath now? In your desperate pursuit of, infamy Two lovers rocking up and down In an elevator 15 minutes later They'll make a killing in the market They knew how to work it On that close circuit My, my, it's a terrible disgrace You'll find these days that there's No hiding place How proud you are You have the knack You're howling in a vacuum Whatever I said about you I didn't say it behind your back I paid for my immortal sins I know the enemy within you As it seems these days There is no hiding place Next time someone wants to hurt you Or set alight your effigy Don't call on me to help you out Don't come crying to me sympathy You stay there with your daubs and scratches While I summon up the red machine I'll be handing someone matches And carrying a can of kerosene Walk up to me And say what you said See how brave you are When I'm about this far away You sit in judgment and bitch Well, baby that's rich You're nothing but a snitch Na, na, na ,na, na , na, na Na, na, na ,na, na , na, na Na, na, na ,na, na , na, na My, my, it's a terrible disgrace (Repeat 3X) You'll find these days that there's No hiding place
