Spy World Lyrics - Stan Ridgway

Spoken 

Hello, hello, this is monkeywrench, come in, 

Calling money hutch headquarters. 

Tell smoky grayhead the « bus stopper » is a guy. 

Tell « mister magden » to check on the « chocolate (shotput? ). » 

And I thought this was a glamorous job. 

Well, there's that man who's got everything that he needs 

And when the world is falling in he'll never bleed 

He goes by jones in istanbul and smith in peru 

His job's never through 

It's time to start this little game of cat and mouse 

And try to keep one step aheadccthere's strangers in the house 

His watch is really a radio, his gun a pen 

He knows that it's all gone, no mom, nobody wins 

Chorus:
