Box Five – Nice Boy/blow My Cover lyrics

You're such a nice boy to offer
But you'd only get in the way
I could not let you come with me
You'd only blow my cover

I know it must sound romantic
Living just to seize the day
But without a background in adventure
You would not last me fifteen minutes
And I can't have you blow my cover

What part of "go home now,"
Do you not understand?
It's getting late and once
They find you've disappeared
They'll send a search party
To bring you home and
We
don't
want
that!

Don't look now: they have the place surrounded
Airships are filling the sky
I guess we're in this together
So you march out there and hand yourself over
While I slip, unnoticed, past their radar
I won't have you blow my cover
