I am a rake - I am a wire I am a kettle on the fire I am a dragon - I am a wraith You are the lady of the lake I am an accountant - I have a wife And I have a house in central heights I am a baron - with a beautiful mistress That's my castle in the distance 'Cos there's a secret in this town And I will search until it's found There is a reason and I can't escape it There is a place - I like to go With my typewriter alone To the mystical mountains - to the source of my powers To enquire of him who knows 'Cos some days you fell normal - not magic at all In your four beige bedroom walls But there's a bat in your belfry, babe there's a ghost in your hall there is a treasure in us all 'Cos there's a secret in this town And I will search until it's found There is a reason and I can't escape it There is a ladder to the clouds There is a highway underground there is a doorway and it can't quite open
