I’m a Spy
Language: English 
You can't see me, I'm a spy!
I'm looking all around me with my eye-spy-eye!
I can see you. You can't see me.
I could be in a hole, or hiding up that tree. See!
What you see is not what you get.
You haven't seen nothing yet.
I am sly, not shy, and you know the reason why
because I... am... a... spy!

I'm a spy, I'm a spy.
I'm a spy I'm a spy!

I can sneak, I can skulk, I can hover, I can pace,
I can see there is something going on in this place!
I can sneak, I can skulk, I can hover, I can pace,
I can see there is something going on...
and I want to know why.
Why? Why? Why?
