Lyric Spy In The House Of The Night

( - Donald Roeser - Richard Meltzer - )

I, I have no church or philosophy.
I ve never known or told a joke in sin.
I smoke in bed. I smoke instead.
I know the in s and out s of smoke.

And where there s smoke, there s fire, the flip side of desire.
And if it s true, it can t be you, it might as well be me.
A spy in the house of the fire; a fire in the house of the night.
A white-hot dark-black rendezvous.
I ll see you there tonight!
I ll see you there tonight!

I ve never been to Spain nor to Germany.
I ll never know my way around the city of Gorky.
I ve made love in halls. I fell in love in malls.
I d love to love you in the dark.

And when it s dark, it s night, the flip side of delight.
So, if, in fact, it can t be wrong, well, then, it must be right.
A spy in the house of the fire; a fire in the house of the night.
A white-hot dark-black rendezvous.
I ll see you there tonight!
I ll see you there tonight!

[Instrumental]

And when it s dark, it s night, the flip side of delight.
So, if, in fact, it can t be wrong, well, then it must be right.
A spy in the house of the fire; a fire in the house of the night.
A white-hot dark-black rendezvous.
I ll see you there tonight!
I ll see you there tonight!
I ll see you there tonight!
