The Secret Songtext
von Slapp Happy

There he goes, my hero in wonderful clothes
- passing me by, giving me the eye
- he's my guy & he really keeps a secret.

From the start his message went straight to my heart & over my head
- heavy as lead
- I'd tell you what he said, but I swore I'd keep it secret.


There's something hypnotising 'bout the way he walks -
There's something supernatural 'bout the way he talks -
Coming from another world I know he doesn't find it easy -
Keeps me up every night telling me the same old story -
I told him it's alright no matter what he does he never really bores me.

strike a light he's making my days into night
- mercury man does everything he can
- and my only plan is to keep his secret secret

There's something hypnotising 'bout the way he walks -
There's something supernatural 'bout the way he talks -
Coming from another world I know he doesn't find it easy -
Keeps me up every night telling me the same old story -
I told him it's alright no matter what he does he never really bores me.
