UNDER THE RADAR

I wasn’t looking for a new girlfriend

But she got through in the end

Radar interception was working the coast

The display looking for any ghosts

Had the controls cranked up real high

Even had me a spy in the sky

Elevated orange alert

Should easily be able to deal with a small-town flirt

She wasn’t a one-night stand, love invader

She got through under the radar

Like a stealth fighter she came in

Under the radar

I didn’t pick up any readings from you

You weren’t there then you broke through

Aluminium chaff, decoys and flares

Made it seem that you weren’t there

Radar jamming, it ain’t new to me

But she’s using some strange electricity

Yeah, she was clever, she was smart

She found a new way to get to my heart

I thought I could easily evade her

She got through under the radar

Stasi, police spy

She got through under the radar

I was super wary of you

I didn’t want another girl getting through

But you somehow caught me off-guard

I didn’t know I could fall so hard

I wasn’t looking for a new girlfriend

But you got through in the end

You came gliding in like mercury

Didn’t have time to say you looked good to me

‘Cos you knew what you were doing

Had your helicopter gunships closing in

I surrendered with scarely a word

After catastrophic failure by Early Bird

Like a Stasi police spy

She got through under the radar

Like a stealth fighter she came in

Yeah, under the radar

I thought I could easily evade her

But she got through under the radar

Fifth columnist love spy

She got through under the radar
