A song about sneaking round trying to be avoided.
I got this idea while watching the antics of the press whilst chasing Princess Diana.
Secret Liaison
Hiding in the doorway
We have our reasons
For the cloak and dagger
Way we move about
Staying in the shadows
We have our reasons
For this cloak and dagger
Lie with no way out.
Secret, secret, secret liaison.
Up and down the road
Hopping like a toad
His eyes as cold as ice
He’s a super spy with a large zoom lens
Springing his surprise.
Posing in a hat reporting like a rat
Distorting every word
And in a second or two all his dirty lies
Are faxed around the world.
Secret, secret, secret liaison.
Soaking in the rain, waiting for a train
Expenses paid in full
And with a photograph and a sick headline
Is highly critical.
Secret, secret, secret liaison.
Hiding in the doorway
We have our reasons
For the cloak and dagger
Way we move about
Staying in the shadows
We have our reasons
For this cloak and dagger
Lie with no way out.
Secret, secret, secret liaison.
