 I am a  secret government  agent  armed  with  lies
 About secret  government things. Oh yeahh...
 I have secret  government documents  that could knock you dead
 From your regular  citizen lives. Oh yeahh...
 And I'll break  into your regular  citizen homes with my government knives
 I do regular  citizen things,  but that's where  it ends
 'Cause my secret  government mind  is a rare breed
 I can't love,  I can't feel or have passion  but I don't mind
 'Cause my secret  government facts tell me
Despite  what many normal citizens say
Love  causes pain and pain hurts and now passion is dead
 Before  I became a secret agent spy
I  was put on this earth with a regular life
Smiling  and laughing and singing away
But  I could not keep my curious  mind at bay
I  set out to answer a question of mine
 About  human heart versus rational mind
See,  I thought if I planted my heart in the ground
I  could grow a heart tree and spread my  love around
I  enlisted the help of a very close friend
And  we ripped out my heart so the test  could begin
  $
 And we watered my heart
 And we let  the sun feed it vitamins
 And we waited  for that sprout
 And I dug  up my heart and I found it was nothing but dirt
 (My heart had become the earth)
Now  I'm a secret  government agent armed with  a past
 About regular  citizen life. Oh yeahh...
 I can't love,  I can't feel or have passion
 But I don't mind,  'cause you can't  break my government heart
 You cannot break  my secret agent heart ever  again
