Watching The Detectives (Live)

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 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 of that jumping sign
Visible shivers running down my spine
Cut the baby taking off her clothes
Close up of the sign that says We never close
You snatch a tune you a 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 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
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
It`s 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
