1. Bad Detective - Dolls
2. Fingerprint File - Stones
3. Julie's Been Working For the Drug Squad - Clash
4. Gun - John Cale
5. Don't Feel Too Good - Only Ones
Honorary mention: Bowie's You Feel So Lonely You Could Die, which concerns a spy being hunted for assassination but is vague enough to be a layman's downer heartbreaker.

To be clear, my #3 pick may be somewhat unlistenable. But here we are.

Re: Heston and Marky's Friday Top 5
I actually thought about this one but decided it's more an historical polemic rather than about spooks per se, though it does reference mercs in the last verse.
