You make a living by being a spy
Up for hire as a private eye
Covert operation, tap a telephone
Hack into a hard drive, you`re on your own
The fear of death is what keeps you alive
A deadly mission you must survive
You lurk in shadows, darkness a friend
The lies begin and never end
It`s not for glamour and it`s not for fame
You have a number, not a name
You take your chances out on a limb
You make your chances not on a whim
Secret agent, your law is a gun
Secret agent, you trust no one
Secret agent, a man in black
Secret agent, a gun at your back
Got to get away with what you can
Got to make a secret plan
Secret agent man!
Truth is out there, you know it`s a lie
Trust no one, if you do you die
Government deployed, what`s at stake?
Double agent out on the take
Charged with treason, secrets to sell
Signed in blood, a contract with hell
Followed orders, no questions asked
Suicide mission, could be your last
Secret agent, nothing to do
Secret agent, the cold war is through
Secret agent, it`s espionage
Secret agent, it`s sabotage
