Lyrics
Secret Agent Man
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.
There's a man who lives a life of danger.
To everyone he meets he stays a stranger.
With every move he makes another chance he takes.
Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow.
Chorus:
Secret Agent Man
Secret Agent Man
They've given you a number and taken away your name.
Beware of pretty faces that you find.
A pretty face can hide an evil mind.
Oh, be careful what you say,
Or you'll give yourself away.
Odds are you won't live to see tomorrow.
Chorus x 2
Swinging on the Riviera one day.
And then later in the Bombay Alan next day.
I know you let the wrong words slip,
While kissing persuasive lips.
The odds are you won't live to see tomorrow.
Chorus
Secret Agent Man
