Secret Agent Man
(LM 213)
Nasser Shukayr
OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER
(four beat musical lead)
Sides face, grand square
There's a man who leads a life of danger
To everyone he meets he stays a stranger
With every move he makes, another chance he takes
Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow
Allemande and weave
Secret agent man, secret agent man
Swing James Bond*, promenade around the ring
Secret agent man, secret agent man
They've given you a number...
Heads square thru...
Beware of pretty faces that you'll find
Be careful what you say, you'll give yourself away
Odds are you won't live to see tomorrow
Playing on the Riviera one day
You've let the wrong word slip while kissing persuasive lips
Odds are you won't live to see tomorrow
FIGURE
There's a man who leads a life of dancer
Swing thru and then spin the top
With every move he makes recycle round that way
Reverse the flutter wheel and live to see tomorrow
Square thru three secret agent man
Swing Maxwell Smart*, promenade around the ring
Secret agent man, secret agent man
They've given you a number...
Heads square thru...

The Man From U.N.C.L.E., Matt Helm, Johnny English
