There is a spy on the Moon who is spying on the earth Taking note of everything we do I heard him say he's afraid, he says he's pretty glad That we're down here and he's up on the Moon And he sees circles in circles and spirals spinning round The earth is flying up or falling down And lovers walk on the shore leaving footprints on the sand Their eyes are green or blue their eyes are brown There is a hole in the sky where the love is going away The love is going away for ever more There is a bump in the road and a creeper on the stair And somebody is knocking at the door There is a queue on the street and an office full of chairs And people having fantasies in cars There is a bed in the garden, the Moon is shining down On drunkards drinking Guinesses in bars There is a spy on the Moon who is spying on the earth Taking note of everything we do I heard him say he's afraid, he says he's pretty glad That we're down here and he's up on the Moon Twenty filter tips at the motorway garage The sky behind the petrol pumps is green There is a bunk in the shed where a man is lying dead Murdered by the things he'll never be There is a hole in the sky where the love is going away The love is going away for ever more There is a bump in the road and a creeper on the stair And somebody is knocking at the door And there are circles in circles and spirals spinning round The earth is flying up or falling down And lovers walk on the shore leaving footprints on the sand Their eyes are green or blue their eyes are brown There is a spy on the Moon who is spying on the earth Taking note of everything we do I heard him say he's afraid, he says he's pretty glad That we're down here and he's up on the Moon There is a hole in the sky where the love is going away The love is going away for ever more There is a bump in the road and a creeper on the stair And somebody is knocking at the door There is a spy on the Moon who is spying on the earth Taking note of everything we do There is a bump in the road and a creeper on the stair And somebody is knocking at the door (Thank you, good night!) (Thank you)
