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 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
