I worked a dead end job, I didn't have a car
hitch-hiking highway star
I crossed a field or two, I walked the ocean blue
killing off all the hours
I was hanging out in this no-where town
looking for excuse to booze
and I know enough not to blow my cover
but wink and I'll tell you the truth

come on baby, I said sha la la la la
don't say crazy

you see i'm not so ordinary
do you think that's kinda scary
would you run away if I asked you to stay
for a month and a day

Secret surveillance yeah I'm on the scene
every sense is finely tuned
well you might not know it but I never sleep
I pass my nights with the tube

I'm on a secret mission, go where no ones listening
how about my place
we can hang around, listen to Motown
even spies dig Marvin Gaye

come on baby, I said sha la la la la
don't say crazy

you see I'm not so ordinary
do you think that's kinda scary
would you run away if I asked you to stay
for a month and a day
