Deny, Deny, Deny Lyrics
Hey Undercover Lover!
When you coming home?
I’m a different lover than I was before
Hey Undercover Lover!
Why you rattlin’ on?
What’s keeping me from locking up this door?
Hey Disappearing Dreamer!
What you dreaming now?
Hiding places I could never find
Hey Disappearing Dreamer!
Let me ask you how
You intend to make this heart rewind
Hiding in the backseat
Waiting for a dark street
Trying to find a place to run
Living for the last night
Bluer than the moonlight
Everybody comes undone
Around, around, our love came down
Like the Berlin Wall
Deny, deny, you can’t deny
You let the Curtain fall
Hey Unraveling Traveler!
Where you traveling to?
Is there somewhere else you wanna be?
Hey Unraveling Traveler!
When it’s only me and you
Why’s everything gotta break in three?
Sitting on the back deck
Writing me a bad cheque
Bending down to tie your lace
One: You were the lonely
Two: You were my only
Three: You went and left this place
When you coming home?
I’m a different lover than I was before
Hey Undercover Lover!
Why you rattlin’ on?
What’s keeping me from locking up this door?
Hey Disappearing Dreamer!
What you dreaming now?
Hiding places I could never find
Hey Disappearing Dreamer!
Let me ask you how
You intend to make this heart rewind
Waiting for a dark street
Trying to find a place to run
Living for the last night
Bluer than the moonlight
Everybody comes undone
Like the Berlin Wall
Deny, deny, you can’t deny
You let the Curtain fall
Where you traveling to?
Is there somewhere else you wanna be?
Hey Unraveling Traveler!
When it’s only me and you
Why’s everything gotta break in three?
Writing me a bad cheque
Bending down to tie your lace
One: You were the lonely
Two: You were my only
Three: You went and left this place

Joel drops a lot of hints in this song that the romance ending isn't a licit one. It comes down "like the Berlin Wall," and the "undercover lover" writes him a "bad cheque." The theme of "three" throughout the album bleeds in here too, suggesting a love triangle.
