Watching The Detectives - 1997/Live At The Nashville Rooms
Nice girls, not one with a defect Cellophane shrink-wrapped, so correct Red dogs under illegal x 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, shoot, shoot, 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' He snatches at you and you match his 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 Oh when they shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot They beat him up until the teardrops start But he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heart Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
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
Just like watching the detectives Don't get cute Just like watching the detectives I get so angry when the teardrops start But he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heart
Watching the detectives It's just like watching the detectives Watching the detectives Watching the detectives
Watching the detectives Watching the detectives They're watching the detectives Watching the detectives
