Lyrics
Undercover
by Dick Groves



It’s not a job for those that want an easy life
Need not apply if you plan on staying with your wife.
I can stand here right beside you, you won’t know that I exist
You mean nothing to me, you’re just another name on my list.

CHORUS
I’ll have to cancel, baby, but
That’s what happens, when you’re working undercover
Undercover baby.
No ifs or buts or maybes, when you’re working undercover.

You can check your mirror, next time you’re driving down the street
But someone you know, is paying me to be discrete.
Am I standing on the corner, clocking every move you make
Or sitting in the coffee bar watching as you eat your cake.

I’ll have to ring you, baby, but
That’s what happens, when you’re working undercover
Undercover baby.
No ifs or buts or maybes, when you’re working undercover.

I’ve all the gadgets that technology can throw my way
I can see you when you can’t be seen, every minute night or day.
Have I bugged your car and track you from the comfort of my easy chair
Just remember nowhere’s safe, ignore the warning if you dare.

I’m so sorry, baby, but
That’s what happens, when you’re working undercover
Undercover baby.
No ifs or buts or maybes, when you’re working undercover.
