Lyrics
The Spectre of Death stalks him in a dark alley
The man quickly turns and fires his gun
And as he steps over the body he murmurs,
"The name's Bond, James Bond."
He's doubleOseven, he's programmed for danger
His drink's a martini; shaken not stirred
And the world feels safe as he passes by murmuring,
"The name's Bond, James Bond."
(bridge)
Darkness masks the coarse and gritty
melodrama of the city
All the while in callous style
Bond is on the hunt.
Cloaked in tragic midnight action
terror, hate and evil passion
Through the night in neon light
Bond is on the hunt.
The women he takes are seductive and deadly
He loves them and leaves them, and then when he's done
He takes a last look as he tips his hat, murmuring,
"The name's Bond, James Bond."
(bridge)
So bad men will die now as all bad men do
And the women will all have finally succumbed,
To the heat of his flame as they sigh out his name...
"James Bond!" ...........oooooh James!
