Lyrics
THEY ALL FIND OUT
YOU SNEAK OFF TO THE CLEANERS
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF TOWN.
EASE IN FROM 'ROUND THE CORNER
COLLAR UP AND HAT BRIM DOWN.
LAY THAT SHIRT OUT ON THE COUNTER
STAINED BY ALL YOUR CHEATIN' WAYS.
AND DROP YOUR JAW-IT'S YOUR MOTHER-IN-LAW
THE CLEANERS HIRED HER TODAY
THE TRACKS FROM YOUR LOVERS
YOU THINK THEY BEEN COVERED,
NO TRACE, NO PLACE, NO DOUBT.
BUT ONE LITTLE SLIP UP
JUST ONE LITTLE HICCOUGH....
AND BABY, THEY ALL FIND OUT.
YOU KNOW THEY ALL FIND OUT
(THEY ALL FIND OUT)
I SAY THEY ALL FIND OUT
(THEY ALL FIND OUT)
YOU MIGHT BE FEELIN' KINDA CLEVER,
BUT REMEMBER THEY ALL FIND OUT.
LEAVIN' THAT MOTEL ROOM
FROM YOUR SECRET RENDEZVOUS.
BUT FIRST YOU TAKE A NICE LONG SHOWER
WITH YOUR USE-AT-HOME SHAMPOO.
YOU PAID YOUR BILL IN CASH FROM YOUR SECRET STASH,
NOT A TRACE OF WHAT YOU SPEND.
THEN THE POLICE RAID THE ROOM NEXT DOOR -
YOU'RE ON THE NEWS AT SIX AND TEN.
THE TRACKS FROM YOUR LOVERS
YOU THINK THEY BEEN COVERED,
NO TRACE, NO PLACE, NO DOUBT.
BUT ONE LITTLE SLIP UP
JUST ONE LITTLE HICCOUGH....
AND BABY, THEY ALL FIND OUT.
YOU KNOW THEY ALL FIND OUT
(THEY ALL FIND OUT)
I SAY THEY ALL FIND OUT
(THEY ALL FIND OUT)
YOU MIGHT BE FEELIN' KINDA CLEVER,
BUT REMEMBER THEY ALL FIND OUT.
