Secret Gig

Psst Sssh
Psst Sssh
Psst Sssh
Sssh

They’re gonna be unveiling some new material
Some new material
Some new material
And the drummer’s got a song
That he’d like to try out
In a live environment, a live environment
Tell it down the mines
There’s gonna be a secret gig
You’ve gotta knock three times
If you want to see a secret gig

Psst Sssh
Psst Sssh
Psst Sssh
Sssh

The information needed can be found in anagram
On the internet the day before
I’ve got a cousin in Tredegar
But he’s unreliable
And undeniably a rank buffoon
But I can tolerate his crimes
‘Cos he’s never done a secret gig
He’s gotta knock three times
If he wants to see a secret gig

Ten past nine, The Borderline
A mole sold a leak to the new fanzine
The ‘zine flipped
Tongue slipped
And we all headed off to the nearest tube

Sssh
MI5 Plus One
CIA Plus Two
MFI Plus Three
Sir Roger Casement Plus Four
Bob from the basement and friends
Evan Dando Plus Ten
And his sister Suzanne
Who lives by the river

Sssh
