Shhh, It's A Military Secret
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
ALL:
Shhh...shhh...
Take a tip, button up your lip,
Don't get yourself unstrung,
Harm may come
Just from a slip of the tongue...
Don't talk about the weather,
Shhh, it's a military secret,
Just keep your wits together
That's the safest way to keep it
These are critical times
Be careful of espionage
In such critical times
You gotta watch out for sabotage
If you must talk to someone
Don't give any information
It's smart to be a dumb one
Simply change the conversation
Let's just talk about love
´Cause that's what I'm thinking of,
And it's no military secret that I love you...
TB:
Hey, how about romancing?
MH:
If you can keep a secret...
TB:
Well, can I take you dancing?
MH:
If you'll take my heart and keep it
I'm not saying a word,
I'm careful whatever I do
TB:
I guess ev'ryone's heard
I wanna give all my love to you
ALL:
If you gotta talk to someone
Don't give any information
It's smart to be a dumb one
Simply change the conversation
Let's talk about love
That's what I'm thinking of
It's no secret, no secret
It's no secret
That I love you...!
