Balance: Undercover man [lyrics]

Balance: Undercover man [lyrics]

Balance

Undercover man

He walked the streets through

the dead of night

Felt the steel from a switch blade knife

Played himself for a lure 'til he got caught

He's an undercover danger man

A marked card in a gambler's hand

To do the best he could wax what he thought

CHORUS:

Nobody knows the tragedy

Nobody knows what it's like to be

An undercover man

Nobody knows the agony

Nobody knows what it's like to be

An undercover man

His friends all know it was sudden death

That he'd fight till his dying breath

Tough as he was, I knew

They'd shoot him dead

He left a wife broken and destroyed

With empty years and two baby boys

To face the lonely times that lie ahead

CHORUS
