Cellophane City

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

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 you 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 is with yes and he knows where they are

Because it's cellophane city and everyone knows

There's no secret nothing and that is how it goes

Cellophane city you try as you may

There's no secret nothing it's all on display

You try to be Jesus you try to be boss

You pulled a few tricks and you hang on a cross

This sepulcher is empty yeah but all is at peace

We know you're with Magdalene yes and 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 you try as you may

There's no secret nothing it's all on display
