Philby |
| Now ain’t it strange that I feel like Philby |
| There’s a stranger in my soul |
| I’m lost in transit in a lonesome city |
| I can’t come in from the cold |
| I’m deep in action on a secret mission |
| Contact’s broken down |
| Time drags by, I’m above suspicion |
| There’s a voice on the telephone |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
| Well it sure is dark in this clockwork city |
| Contact’s never gonna show |
| I’ve got a code which can’t be broken |
| My eyes never seem to close |
| Well, I’m standing here in the silent city |
| Shadows falling down |
| I’m disconnected but I don’t need pity |
| The night’s gonna burn on slow |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
| Now ain’t it funny that I feel like Philby |
| A stranger on a foreign shore |
| I’ve got my plans and I must move quickly |
| There’s a knock upon the door |
| Still in transit and I’m close to danger |
| My cover can’t be blown |
| It’s getting strange and it’s getting crazy |
| Tell me, what is going on? |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
| Four o’clock and nothing’s moving |
| Six o’clock and the daylight’s stirring |
| Morning comes, must be moving on |
| All night long my mind’s been burning |
| Makes me feel such a long, long way from home, home |
| Now ain’t it strange that I feel like Philby |
| There’s a stranger in my soul |
| I’m lost in transit in a lonesome city |
| I can’t come in from the cold |
