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

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
