WAS (NOT WAS) Live - Spy In The House Of Love (w / lyrics)

LYRICS:
Spy (in the house) I don't know what I'm going to do
this evening - Spy - in the house of love
The air was filled with suspicion
She poured us two martinis
And tried to guess my mission
I pretended to know nothing
It's best to use discretion
But she turned her floodlight eyes on me
Demanded a confession
I told her I am a spy in the house of love
Gathering clues to be used
In the war of the affections
I am a spy in the house of love I won't be refused
I'm waiting for your heart's defection
Spy - ah,ah yeah - in the house of love - lookee here
I saw, yes I did, everything that pleased her
I recorded every movement
And plotted how to seize her
I used a tiny camera I thought I'd Japanese her
I made a voodoo doll of her
Sat around and squeezed her
I told her I am a spy in the house of love
Gathering clues to be used
In the war of the affections
I am a spy in the house of love I won't be refused
I'm waiting for your heart's defection
I'll read your mail I'll tap your phone
I'm on your trail You're never alone
One day you'll slip up
And leave a lip print on a coffee cup
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah - oh yeah

I used a tiny camera I thought I'd Japanese her
I made a voodoo doll of her
Sat around and squeezed her
I told her I am a spy in the house of love
Gathering clues to be used
In the war of the affections
I am a spy in the house of love
I won't be refused I'm waiting for your heart's defection

Absolutely dynamite live performance! I wish groups still made music like this... thanks for posting this!

[LauraO1787]

Thanks so much for posting the lyrics. I thought I knew them all, but I was wrong in a couple spots. Now I can sing along with confidence.

Sir Harry Bowens reminded me of an older Carlton, but could sing. He's the one with the tuxedo on the right.

Hi! We're from the 1980s!

[froggo66]

I've been listening to Was not Was records off and on for years, and particularly love What Up Dog. But until I saw this video, I had no idea that they had been such an incredible live act. I love this awesome video!

Sir Harry Bowen is the Real Deal Holyfield!

Was not Was @ their best - God bless Sweet Pea and Sir Harry!!!

It's a shame that great music like this is not in the mainstream today. WNW kills em. The funk is gone.

[RaintreeLDS]

Was - IS.

Was Not Was on the old Arsenio Hall Show, Goddamn, you could close your eyes and see 1989 from here.
