I’m a spy in the house of love  
I know the dream that you’re dreamin’ of  
I know the word that you long to hear  
I know your deepest, secret fear

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.

Secret Agent Man  
Secret Agent Man  
They’ve given you a number and taken away your name.

This is me for forever  
One of the lost ones  
The one without a name  
Without an honest heart as compass

This is me for forever  
One without a name  
These lines the last endeavor  
To find the missing lifeline

Oh how I wish  
For soothing rain  
All I wish is to dream again  
My loving heart  
Lost in the dark  
For hope I’d give my everything

Whenever life gets you down, and you’re wearing a frown,  
And the gravy train has left you behind,  
When you’re all out of hope, at the end of your rope,  
And nobody’s there to throw you a line…

If you ever get so low that you don’t know which way to go,  
Come on and take a walk in my shoes.  
I never worry 'bout a thing, I got the world on a string,  
Because I’ve got the cure for all of my blues:

I take a look at my enormous penis,  
And my troubles start melting away!  
I take a look at my enormous penis,  
And the happy times are coming to stay!  
Yeah, I sing and I dance when I glance in my pants,  
And the feeling’s like a sunshiney day!  
I take a look at my enormous penis,  
And everything’s going my way.

You should have seen me win at poker, man.  
I had a honey and I bet a grand  
Just in the nick of time I looked at his hand  
I was talking to an Eskimo.  
Said he was hoping for a fall of snow,  
When up popped a sea lion, ready to go.

Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go, let’s go  
Down to Junior’s Farm where I wanna lay low  
Low life, high life, oh let’s go  
Take me down to Junior’s Farm

Dreamed I was an Eskimo  
Frozen wind began to blow  
Under my boots and around my toes  
The frost that bit the ground below  
It was a hundred degrees below zero…

Everybody’s building ships and boats  
Some are building monuments, others jotting down notes  
Everybody’s in despair, every girl and boy  
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here  
Everybody’s gonna jump for joy

Wooden ships on the water, very free and easy,  
Easy, you know the way it’s supposed to be,  
Silver people on the shoreline, let us be,  
Talkin’ 'bout very free and easy.

I buried both his legs beneath the garbage dregs,  
His arms beneath the hanger for his coat.  
The tub caught the stain, then hid the skull and brain,  
So now he’s got ring-around-the-throat.

The police came by here, but what had I to fear?  
I let 'em in to take a look around,  
But the longer they stayed, the more my nerves were frayed,  
And then I heard that cotton-ticking sound.

Don’t find the heart, the telly taley heart,  
'Cause that’s the only weakness to my plan,  
And if you find the heart, the telly taley heart,  
You’ll prob’ly figure out I killed the man.

But when I kissed the cop down at 34th and Vine,  
He broke my little bottle of Love Potion Number 9.
