"dire ses quatre vérités (à quelqu'un)" is a fixed expression in French. That doesn't mean that there are four (or five, or ten, or one thousand) truths, but "to tell someone the (often unkind) facts about him". In his poem "le cheval rouge" Jacques Prévert plays with the sentence as he often did with many other expressions, creating an opposition with 'mensonges' (lies) in the first part of the poem.
