They Might Be Giants
Working Undercover for the Man
[Verse 1]
I've been working hard
Trying to sing and play guitar
Growing out my hair
And practicing my stare
[Chorus]
Paid to fake it in a traveling band
And I'm working undercover for the man
[Post-Chorus]
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
[Verse 2]
Planning midnight raids
On our unsuspecting fans
While the roadies rig
The video surveillance van
[Chorus]
Paid to fake it in a traveling band
And I'm working undercover for the man
[Post-Chorus]
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
[Acoustic Guitar]
[Verse 3]
I've been working hard
Practicing to sing and play guitar
Growing out my hair
And working on my stare
[Chorus]
Paid to fake it in a traveling band
And I'm working undercover for the man
[Outro]
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
