Tori Amos - Spies lyrics

Knowing this may help you make
Make it through the night on lullabies
Knowing this may help you to
Open up your eyes spies

Everywhere from here to London Town
Tracking the thieving meanies below
And above ground

Spies that's right
Spies

You see an aardvark on the underground
Then on the bridge, under the tower
Its spatter dashes with a plaid umbrella
It seems he's just a well-dressed fella

Spies that's right
Spies

Knowing this may help you make


Make it through the night on lullabies
Knowing this may help you to
Open up your eyes spies

That's right, that's right spies

In a cafe stalking scary men
Spotting a flying saucer hovering
Above Big Ben

Spies that's right
Spies

They may say they're on holiday
Grabbing a latte in a coquelicot beret

Spies je suis spy

But that hippopotamus must stay
Anonymous for now
Yes, that hippopotamus must stay
Anonymous for now

Here from London up to Aberdeen
Ferry to Dublin
All the way down to Skibbereen

Spies that's right
Spies

Spies don't think that it's absurd
No spy that I know does not
Scary men dipped in mustard
English mixed with Dijon
Mrs Crabby Apple won't get custard
Won't get crumble

Spies we love
Spies

Knowing this may help you make
Make it through the night on lullabies
Knowing this may help you to
Open up your eyes with lullabies
Knowing this may help you to
Help you close your eyes get some shut-eye
