This song has two parts, an opening vocal acoustic segment, followed by an
instrumental electric part II. I've written out changes and the lyrics to the
opening section.
INSIDE AND OUT
(acoustic "Inside" section)
from the EP "Spot The Pigeon" by Genesis
Composed by: Tony Banks - Steve Hackett - Phil Collins - Mike
Rutherford

Seems they're letting him out next year
He's behaving himself I hear
Governor Conway says it will be fine
Just as long as he can tow the line.
So it's the same old story
But it says here "Mum you're not to worry,
(add 2)
'Cos some you lose and some you lose."
At this party he was on his own,
All he did was say he'd take her home
But it seems he didn't go straight there
'Twas on the porch she told him, Put your hand there
Yes it's that same old story, they told her mum she's not to
worry
If what she says is so, they'll never let him go.
Never a word could be heard, not even the sound of a bird
F#m7 BmSinging it over again, telling the same old story
Never the same as before, see the summer going out by the door.
And now that you've paid for those lies, get another dis - guise.
(add 2)
It's twenty years now since our kid came free
Oh I remember August '53
But it wasn't quite like they said
With that behind you you can't plan ahead.
So it's that same old story
They say you're free, so don't worry
What they said's not so
They never let you go!
Never a word could be heard, not even the sound of a bird
Singing it over again, telling the same old story
Never the same as before, see the summer going out by the door.
And now that you've paid for those lies, get another dis - guise.
