Watching the Detectives

Nice Girls, Not One With A Defect
Cellophane Shrink-Wrapped
So Correct
Red Dogs
Under Illegal Legs
She Looks So Good, That He Gets Down
And Begs

She Is Watching The Detectives
Ooh, He's So Cute
She Is Watching The Detectives
When They Shoot

They Beat Him Up Until The Teardrops Start
But He Can't Be Wounded
'Cause He's Got No Heart

Long Shot At That Jumping Sign
Invisible Shivers Running Down My Spine
Cut To 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 Is Watching The Detectives
Ooh, He's So Cute
She Is Watching The Detectives
When They Shoot

You Think You're Alone Until You Realize You're In It
Now Fear Is Here To Stay
Love Is Here For A Visit
They Call It Instant Justice
When It's Past The Legal Limit
Someone's Scratching At The Window
I Wonder Who Is It

The Detectives Come To Check
If You Belong To The Parents
Who Are Ready To Hear The Worst
About Their Daughter's Disappearance
Though It Nearly Took A Miracle To Get You To Stay
It Only Took My Little Fingers
To Blow You Away
To Blow You Away

She Is
Oh
She Is
Oh
She Is Watching The Detectives
Ooh, He's So Cute
She Is Watching The Detectives
When They Shoot Shoot Shoot

Watching The Detectives
Watching The Detectives
Watching The Detectives
