Amanda the actress Waits at the station She's drifting with nothin' to do With dilettante steps She's quick to accept The weather in times turning screw She lives in a tower Armed with defences She learned from her mother and friends She walks like a Pharaoh Dresses in day-glo When she's in pain she pretends ('Cause) late in the night When the lights are all out She slips off her stockings and shoes She makes you her lover And lets you discover The smile she keeps She keeps for you She keeps no She keeps no She keeps no secrets from you She keeps no She keeps no She keeps no secrets from you She keeps no She keeps no She keeps no secrets from you Facing the morning Wearing her shadow She throws her dice And I-Ching Success in Japan A rescuing man Knows she won't change anything ('Cause) late in the night When the lights are all out She slips off her stockings and shoes She makes you her lover And lets you discover The smile she keeps She keeps for you She don't keep no secrets (whispered) Can you please tell me what the time is
