I think this place is full of spies

I think they're onto me

Didn't anybody, didn't anybody tell you

Didn't anybody tell you how to gracefully disappear in a room

I know you put in the hours to keep me in sunglasses, I know

And so and now I'm sorry I missed you

I had a secret meeting in the basement of my brain

It went the dull and wicked ordinary way

It went the dull and wicked ordinary way

And now I'm sorry I missed you

I had a secret meeting in the basement of my brain

I think this place is full of spies

I think I'm ruined

Didn't anybody, didn't anybody tell you

Didn't anybody tell you, this river's full of lost sharks

I know you put in the hours to keep me in sunglasses, I know

And so and now I'm sorry I missed you

I had a secret meeting in the basement of my brain

It went the dull and wicked ordinary way

It went the dull and wicked ordinary way

And now I'm sorry I missed you

I had a secret meeting in the basement of my brain

And now I'm sorry I missed you

I had a secret meeting in the basement of my brain

It went the dull and wicked ordinary way
