O que calo e descubro, como morro e o que encubro





“BOO BOO BABY I'M A SPY”

I'm involved in a dangerous game, 
Every other day I change my name, 
The face is different but the body's the same, 
Boo, boo, baby, I'm a spy! 
You have heard of Mata Hari, 
We did business cash and carry, 
Poppa caught us and we had to marry, 
Boo, boo, baby, I'm a spy! 
Now, as a lad, I'm not so bad, 
In fact, I'm a darn good lover, 
But look my sweet, let's be discreet, 
And do this under cover. 
I'm so cocky I could swagger, 
The things I know would make you stagger, 
I'm ten percent cloak and ninety percent dagger, 
Boo, boo, baby, I'm a spy!
