Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a man who leads a life of danger
To everyone he meets he stays a stranger
With every move he makes, another chance he takes
Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow
[Verse 2]
Secret agent man
Secret agent man
They've given you a number
And taken 'way your name
[Verse 3]
Beware of pretty faces that you find
A pretty face can hide an evil mind
Oh, be careful what you say, or you'll give yourself away
Odds are you won't live to see tomorrow
[Verse 4]
Secret Agent Man
Secret Agent Man
They've given you a number
And taken 'way your name
[Verse 5]
Secret Agent Man
Secret Agent Man
They've given you a number
And taken 'way your name
[Verse 6]
Swingin' on the Riviera one day
And then layin' in the Bombay ally next day
Oh, no, you let the wrong words slip by kissin' persuasive lips
The odds are you won't live to see tomorrow
[Verse 7]
Secret Agent Man
Secret Agent Man
They've given you a number
And taken 'way your name
[Verse 8]
Secret Agent Man
