Cellophane City |
| It ain’t no big secret the trouble you’re in |
| You wear a thin mask and it smiles and it grins |
| Can’t get no credit, can’t get a loan |
| Mmm…, it’s heard at the parties yes and over the phones |
| Because it’s cellophane city and everyone knows |
| There’s no secret, nothing, and that’s how it goes |
| Cellophane city, you try as you may |
| There’s no secret, nothing, it’s all on display |
| He stood in the kitchen, she told him a lie |
| She left around seven and kissed him goodbye |
| She snuck across the town to a rendezvous bar |
| Well, he knows who she is with, yes and he knows where they are |
| Because it’s cellophane city and everyone knows |
| There’s no secret, nothing, and that is how it goes |
| Cellophane city, you try as you may |
| There’s no secret, nothing, it’s all on display |
| You try to be Jesus, you try to be boss |
| You pulled a few tricks and you hang on a cross |
| This sepulcher is empty, yeah but all is at peace |
| We know you’re with Magdalene, yes, and sailing for Greece |
| Because it’s cellophane city, and everyone knows |
| There’s no secret, nothing, and that’s how it goes |
| Cellophane city, yes you try as you may |
| There’s no secret, nothing, it’s all on display |
