You Can'T Tell

You can't tell me I'm like your brother You can't tell me to keep undercover You can't tell me your happy with another You can't tell me I'd like your mother You can't tell me I'd be a poor lover You can't tell a book from its size or cover You can't tell me I'm not the one You can't tell me your love has gone You can't tell me you've strung me long You can't tell me I'm just another one You can't tell me I'd be a poor lover You can't tell a book from its size or cover You can't tell me you know my name You can't tell me know my game You can't tell me that I'm to blame You can't tell me you think I'm insane I'll tell you that I'm the man I'll tell you I do what I can I'll tell you that I'm your fan I'll tell you I've got a plan I'll tell you I'm a red hot lover You can't tell a book from its size or cover
