Watching the Detectives
Nice girls not one with a defect,cellophane shrink-wrapped, so correctRed dogs under illegal legsShe looks so good that he gets down and begsChorus:She is watching the detectives"Ooh, he's so cute"She is watching the detectivesWhen they shoot, shoot, shoot, shootThey beat him up until the teardrops start,but he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heartLong shot of that jumping signVisible shivers running down my spineCut to the baby taking off her clothesClose-up of the sign that says,"You never close"You catch a tune and match a cigaretteShe pulls the eyes out with a face like a magnetI don't know how much more of this I can takeShe's filing her nails while they're dragging the lakeChorusYou think you're alone till you realize you're in itNow fear is here to stay, love is here for a visitSongtexteThey call it instant justice when it's past the legal limitSomeone's scratching at the door, I wonder who is it?The detectives come to see if you belong to the parentsWho are ready to hear the worst about their daughter's disappearanceThough it nearly took a miracle to get you to stay,it only took my little fingers to blow you awayJust like watching the detectives"Don't get cute"Just like watching the detectivesThey beat him up until the teardrops start,but he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heartJust like watching the detectives"Don't get cute"Just like watching the detectives, yeah Aus Songtexte Mania
