Secret Life

Lyrics

[Verse 1] In your little black book You've got the names And the favourite persuasions Of the people in the headlines I'm in there under A And I'm rated under B You've got photographs to prove it And I swear to God it's not me You've got a hard heart Being hard is your art You think love is a dirty dirty word You pick up the phone And you ring me when I'm at home And then you put it down And I'm reaching for my valium [Chorus] My secret life Living life On a knife edge of life Tell my wife And she's just had a breakdown And I I'm not rich But you know I'm top in my pitch And you'll ruin the lot Finish everything I've got My secret life Secret life [Post-Chorus] I'll give you anything Anything to shut you up Why do you hate me so much? What have I ever done to you But leave you? [Verse 2] I don't want to play Cat and Mouse Have the neighbours looking over at my house All the secret smiles When I walk in the room And I think I'm going to Crack up soon I'm going to run away Find a place in the dark Where I don't have to hear The nasty nasty talk Change my sex Change my hair Be hard to find anywhere [Chorus] My secret life Living life On a knife edge of life Tell my wife And she's just had a breakdown And I I'm not rich But you know I'm top in my pitch And you'll ruin the lot Finish everything I've got My secret life My secret life [Post-Chours] I'll give you anything Anything to shut you up Why do you hate me so much? What have I ever done to you But leave you? [Outro] My secret life My secret life My secret life My secret life My se-se-secret life
