Watching The Detectives - Lyrics by Duran Duran


Lyrics
Nice girls not one with the defects cellophane shrink wrapped so correct

Red dogs under illegal legs she looks so good that he gets down and begs


She's watching the detectives oh he's so cute she's watching the detectives

Oh and they shoot


They beat him up until the tear drops start but he can't be wounded cause he's got no heart

Long shot of that jumping sign invisible shivers running Cut the baby taking off her clothes close up of the sign that says we never close

You snatch a tune you match a cigarette she pulls the eyes out with a face like a magnet
I don't know how much more of this I can take

She's filing her nails while they're dragging the lake


She's watching the detectives oh he's so cute

She's watching the detectives and they shoot

She's watching the detectives oh he's so cute

She's watching the detectives oh as they shoot, shoot, shoot


They beat him up until the teardrops start but he can't be wounded cause he's got no heart

You think you're alone until you realize you're in it

Our fear is here to stay love is here for a visit

They call it instant justice when it's past the legal limit

There's someone scratching at the window I wonder who is it

The detectives come and check if you belong to the parents

Who are ready to hear the worst about their daughters disappearance

Though it nearly took a miracle to get you to stay

It only took my little fingers to blow you away

She's, she's watching oh she's watching oh

She's watching the detectives oh and they shoot

She's watching the detectives oh and they shoot
she's watching the detectives oh as they shoot, shoot, shoot
