Lyrics
Watch I have a job I have a motor car I have a passport But don’t go too far I have field glasses An accurate map All within reach There’s no handicap I keep a close watch on the words you say I keep a close watch on the interplay I keep a close watch on the things you do I keep a close watch on you I have a life And acquaintances I have a good home Secure finances I‘ve obligations And a sense of place Two obsessions And a travel case. I keep a close watch as the pattern grow I keep a close watch on the tracks in snow I keep a close watch on anything new I keep a close watch on you Some recordings And a 3 month log I have night goggles I see through the fog I have a timeline And an outcome planned Some documents And I’ll get those scanned. I keep a close watch on your DNA I keep a close watch on the games you play I keep a close watch but don’t misconstrue I keep a close watch on you I have neighbours And a plain blue van I have collections And a tested plan I have field glasses And a special place All within reach And a “just in case” I keep a close watch on you night & day I keep a close watch on your resume I keep a close watch and the point accrue I keep a close watch on you I keep a close watch on the words you say I keep a close watch on the interplay I keep a close watch on the things you do I keep a close watch on you
