Joan Armatrading - Secret Secrets

write it down in invisible ink
I write it down
Everything I want
I keep it private
Don't let nobody know
It's my secret
And I won't let go
It's my secret
And I won't let go

Do you want to join my society
Well you'll be governed By intelligence
You've got to swear
Be reticent
And answer questions
With a number

And when you talk
No facial expressions
You've got to hold things back
And when your friends say
Give me names and dates
Don't give the answer
