V1
Something's comin' but I don't know what
Look out my window someone's looking up
Same face from the restaurant
La La La La La La La
V2
I like the boots and the turtleneck
Kind of mod, kind of Bolshevik
Circa 1966
La La La La La La La
CHORUS 1
He's a Cold War spy
And now he's workin' overtime
He's a Cold War Spy
No one here gets out alive
V3
Dead drop in my head again
You said Come with me if you wanna live
On the edge of oblivion
La La La La La La La
CHORUS 2
He's a Cold War Spy
German on his father side
He's a Cold War Spy
He's a Cold War Spy
No one here gets out alive No
V4
Just close your eyes my darling one
So we can dream that the good guys won
Danger, baby come in from the cold
We could run We could run
But wherever we go
It's Orwellian thought control
La La La La La La La
CHORUS 3
Like a Cold War Spy
Shifting into overdrive
You're a Cold War spy
You're a Cold War Spy
And now you're in the Stasi Files
You're a Cold War spy
You're a Cold War Spy
You're a Cold War spy
