Clandestiny

Step out of the night
Let’s light up this red scare
In white
We’ve been down deep throats
For how many years
I don’t know
Time, I will erode
Your enigma code
'Til nothing’s left of secrets kept
And there’s no plan to intercept
When wiretaps all go to ground
I’ll still be listening for your sound and
Nothing is up my sleeve
Nothing that you’d believe
I’ll play no more spy games
God ain’t gonna help
Any government gets in our way
God ain’t gonna help
Any government anyway
Someone’s ten-year plan
Is gonna get thwarted
Again
Beauracrats keep cool
'Til somebody threatens
The rules
And we, we don’t look
'Cause they’re just crooks
We know they’ll
Get their just deserts
'Cause they’ve been on (Funny how it seems)
Our backs (One slip)
So long (Can ruin everything)
(Pay close attention)
We won’t cry (Watch)
When they (Your)
Are (Back)
Gone
I will erode
Your secret code
'Til nothing’s left of secrets kept
And there’s no plan to intercept
When we were spies immersed in lies
I still knew you when I looked in your eyes and
Nothing is up my sleeve
Nothing that you’d believe
I’ll play no more spy games
I’ll play no tricks no games
God ain’t gonna help
Any government gets in our way
God ain’t gonna help
Any government anyway
