Testo Watching the Detectives - Duran Duran
Testo della canzone Watching the Detectives (Duran Duran), tratta dall'album Thank You
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
Oh, he's so cute
She is watching the detectives
Oh, 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 of 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 chill and 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, oh
She's filing her nails while they're dragging the lake
She is watching the detectives
Oh, he's so cute
She is watching the detectives
Oh, when they shoot
She is watching the detectives
Oh, he's so cute
She is 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
Someone's 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 daughter's disappearance
Though it nearly took a miracle to get you to stay
It only took my little fingers to blow you away
She is
She is watching
She is watching
She is watching the detectives
Oh when they shoot
She is watching the detectives
Oh, he's so cute
She is watching the detectives
Oh as they shoot, shoot, shoot
