Spies

Knowing this may help you make
Make it through the night
On lullabies
Knowing this may help you to
Open up your eyes
Spies
Everywhere from here to London town
Tracking the thieving meanies below and above ground
Spies
That's right
Spies
You see an aardvark on the underground
Then on the bridge, under the tower
In spatterdashes with a plaid umbrella
It seems he's just a well-dressed fella
Spies
That's right
Spies
Knowing this may help you make
Make it through the night
On lullabies
Knowing this may help you to
Open up your eyes
Spies
That's right, that's right
Spies
In a café stalking scary men
Spotting a flying saucer hovering above Big Ben
Spies
That's right
Spies
They may say they're on holiday
Grabbing a latte in a coquelicot beret
Spies
Je suis
Spies
But that hippopotamus must stay anonymous for now
Yes, that hippopotamus must stay anonymous for now
Here from London up to Aberdeen
Ferry to Dublin, all the way down to Skibbereen
Spies
That's right
Spies
Spies don't think that it's absurd
(No spy that I know does not)
Scary men dipped in mustard (English mixed with Dijon)
Mrs Crabby Apple won't get custard, won't get crumble
Spies
We love
Spies
Knowing this may help you make
Make it through the night
On lullabies
Knowing this may help you to
Open up your eyes
With lullabies
Knowing this may help you to
Help you close your eyes
Get some shut-eye
