“She Might be a Spy” I caught her late at night, no microfilm, but I had my suspicions Her hands were painted red and she had been mumbling about a mission I think I’m paranoid, but there is just no way for us to be certain And though there is no proof, I’m sure that there’s a man behind the curtain I asked if things were alright, she said “Everything will be fine!” I look myself in the mirror and I say “She might be a spy!” She looked at me one night, she asked me to tell her what I was doin’ I just stared blankly back; I could smell conspiracy a’brewin’! (Chorus) I’m scared that all my things have been bugged I’m sure that I’m surrounded by cameras I don’t feel safe even in my own home Is someone out to get me? I may never know I could not sleep for weeks, I thought of all the secrets she’d been learnin’ I thought of faking my own death, leaving my paper trails a’burnin’ She asked if things were alright, I said “Everything will be fine!” I look myself in the mirror and I say “She might be a spy!” (Chorus) I cut my hair, I changed my name, I ran like hell and cut my losses But I can’t shake the feeling I’m the victim of her double crosses So what’s the resolution of the plot, the moral of the story? I’m still in hiding in a bunker, all her secrets still elude me

Hello morning sun, won’t you go away? I just haven't got it in me to face the day today But you still insist on bringing me to the edge of my lack of sanity And you’re not gonna like what I’m gonna say I say ‘everything was alright right up until you came and I have had enough of your stupid little game. You interrupted my perfect dream with information I do not deem worthy, because without it we’d all be the same’ (Chorus) So leave morning sun nobody really wants you here anyway So please, morning sun Get over yourself and stay the hell away I just want to sleep but you still wanna shine Our conflict of interest has put us into quite a bind I want you to go away somewhere quiet and just stay There out of my sight and out of mind I really think the moon gives off a better light Everybody knows that it’s a better satellite But then again, you don’t revolve around the Earth, so now let’s solve Our argument about the morning light But now you need to leave, you really need to go Occupy yourself with something other than your glow It’s time that you acquiesce because you simply don’t impress Anybody with your pyrotechnics show (Chorus) Hello morning sun! Hello morning sun! Hello morning sun! Hello morning sun, Leave.
