Was (Not Was) - Hello Dad...I'm In Jail

Spy In The House Of Love

The air was filled with suspicion
she poured us two martinis
and tried to guess my mission
i pretended to know nothing
it's best to use discretion
but she turned her floodlight eyes on me
and demanded a confession

I told her I am a spy in the house of love
gathering clues to be used in the war of the affections
I am a spy in the house of love
I won't be refused I'm waiting for your heart's defection

I saw, yes i did, everything that pleased her
I recorded every movement
and plotted how to seize her
I used a tiny camera
I thought I'd japanese her
I made a voodoo doll of her
and sat around and squeezed her

I told her i am a spy in the house of love
gathering clues to be used in the war of the affections
Iam a spy in the house of love
I won't be refused I'm waiting for your heart's defection

I'll read your mail
I'll tap your phone
I'm on your trail
you're never alone
one day you'll slip up
and leave a lip print on a coffee cup
I'm a spy and I just can't help myself
