[Verse 1]
Gone is the garden [?], gone are the children whom we learned to water
And all the chicks died at dawn starving in a feather pile of their dead mother
[Verse 2]
[?] straining soft curd draws within the muslin cloth we hung to filter
And all the cows died in line stretching the electric fence to the open pasture
[Chorus]
Nobody can tell, nobody can tell
Nobody can tell, nobody can tell
Make love with yourself, the body can't tell
Nobody can tell, nobody can tell
[Verse 3]
Cradle [?] inside the hay loft, he climbs up the ladder
And all the bats died at once fighting in a burning pile of the boys' [?]
There is a lesson: careless eyes [?] the fruit out from behind the story
And all the kids lost [?] clutching at their bellyaches from the poison berries
[Chorus]
Nobody can tell, nobody can tell
Nobody can tell, nobody can tell
Make love with yourself, the body can't tell
Nobody can tell, nobody can tell
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Nobody can tell, nobody can tell
Nobody can tell, nobody can tell
Make love with yourself, the body can't tell
Nobody can tell, nobody can tell
