There's a man who leads a life of danger.
To everyone he meets he stays a stranger.
With every move he makes, another chance he takes.
Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow.
Secret agent man
Secret agent man
They've given you a number,
and taken away your name.
Beware of pretty faces that you find.
A pretty face can hide an evil mind.
Oh, be careful what you say. You'll give yourself away.
Odds are you won't live to see tomorrow.

Secret agent man
They've given you a number,
and taken away your name.
Swingin' on the Riviera, one day
and then layin' in the Bombay alley next day.
Oh no, you let the wrong words slip while kissing persuasive lips.
The odds are you won't live to see tomorrow.

I think it means when you live a life that requires secrecy, loneliness will always cause you to surrender to the thought of sharing it with someone you think is the one, and that is the one that will take it all. Trust can kill you
