& the spy who won me was um...
awarded a medal
in her honor for valiant effort
how good it is of you to be trying
what's a genius or madman to a
distinguishing gentleman?
it's a feeble attempt at kissing
a force beyond your simple flying
whatever you know it just won't do
it all goes sour in the end
if you wait too long
you gotta close on
to the case at hand
or before too long
you'll be off the trail
gaining on my tail
again
you were spying on me
i could tell you were standing there
it's so obviously a big set-up
how does it feel to be spying?
wherever you go can i come too?
it all goes sour in the end
if you wait too long
you gotta close on
to the case at hand
or before too long
you'll be off the trail
gaining on my tail
again
& the spy who left me left a
files of clues
now it's taking forever & ever
to piece together without dying
wherever you go can i come too?
