Fly on the wall


Fly on the wall

what have you seen?

 

What lies behind the scenes

The wife's ring

The husbands keys

A sleaze that steal with ease

The please of a saint

A robbers taint

The paint in a nursery of a newborn

The silence of breath of a still born

The inside of a prom queen's dresser

The back of a soldier saying yes sir

 

Fly on the wall

what have you seen?
