Cellophane City

Lyrics

It ain't no big secret
 The trouble you're in
 You wear a thin mask
 And it smiles and it grins
 Can't get no credit
 Can't get a loan
 Mmm, it's heard at the parties
 Yes, and over the phones
 Because it's Cellophane City
 And everyone knows
 There's no secret nothing
 And that's how it goes
 Cellophane City
 And try as you may
 There's no secret nothing
 It's all on display
 He stood in the kitchen
 She told him a lie
 She left around seven
 And kissed him goodbye
 She snuck across the town to
 A rendezvous bar
 Well, he knows who she's with
 Yes, and he knows where they are
 Because it's Cellophane City
 And everyone knows
 There's no secret nothing
 And that's how it goes
 Cellophane City
 And try as you may
 There's no secret nothing
 It's all on display
 ♪
 You tried to be Jesus
 You tried to be boss
 You pulled a few tricks
 And you hung on a cross
 The sepulchre is empty
 Yeah, but all is at peace
 We know you're with Magdalene
 Yes, and you're sailing for Greece
 Because it's Cellophane City
 And everyone knows
 There's no secret nothing
 And that's how it goes
 Cellophane City
 Yes, and try as you may
 There's no secret nothing
 It's all on display
