i never wanna be the one you long for
i never wanna be the one that you like
i never wanna hear that i have hurt you
i never wanna hear the sound of you crying
i only wanna be your spy
i never wanna be the one

go hang from someone else's tree
don't pin your hopes on me
i'm trying to tell i'm nobody
i'm just another face in the human race
i never wanna take your place

i never wanna be your new apology
i never wanna be the boy you drop
i never wanna the friend you wanted
i only wanna be the jokes that you tell
i only wanna be your spy
i never wanna be the one

go hang from someone else's tree
don't wait around on me
i'm trying to tell you i'm nobody
i'm just another face in the human race
i never wanna take your place
i never wanna take your place, yeah
i only wanna be your spy
i never wanna be the one
i never wanna be the one, yeah
never wanna be, never wanna be the one, yeah
never wanna be your spy
i only wanna be your guy, yeah
never wanna be, never wanna be, never wanna be
never wanna be, never wanna be, never wanna be
i only wanna be your spy

The Spy Tra La   (normal version)

i never wanna be the one you long for
i never wanna be the boy that you like
i never wanna hear that i have hurt you
i never wanna hear the sound of you crying
i only wanna be your spy
i never wanna be the one

go hang from someone else's tree
don't pin your hopes on me
i'm trying to tell that i'm nobody
i'm just another face in the human race
i never wanna take your place
i never wanna take your place

i never wanna be your new apology
i never wanna be the boy that you drop
i only wanna the friend you wanted
i never wanna be the jokes that you tell
i never wanna be your fella
i never wanna be the one

go hang from someone else's tree
don't wait around on me
i'm trying to tell you that i'm nobody
i'm just another face in the human race
i never wanna take your place
i never wanna be the one
i never wanna be the one
i only wanna be your spy
climb in your window
i only wanna be your spy
at night, in the daytime
i only wanna be the one you don't like
i never wanna be the boy you like
i never wanna be, never wanna be, never wanna be the one
i never wanna be the one
