Little mama
From Japan
Sent by her Masters
To a foreign land
"Go out with the sailors
Hang 'round the dock
Get out of the way
When the bombs start to drop"
You know she's a...
Spy
Be careful what you say, boys
Spy
She looks just like a schoolgirl
Big fat Russian Looks into a buffalo
Check into a dude ranch
In New Mexico Nearby in the desert
Great scientific minds
Struggle with questions Of Space and Time
Watch out for him Spy
You can tell he ain't no cowboy
Spy Vhoaaa !
If you love this country
And I hope you do
Then listen closely
To what I say to you
They're in the shipyard
They're in the factory
And they might look just like me
But they're...
Spies
Everywhere you go see 'em
Spies
They even got 'em in Chicago
