Elvis Costello - Watching The Detectives - Karaoke Version from Zoom Karaoke

Song lyrics:

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 WATCHIN' THE DETECTIVES
OOH, HE'S SO CUTE
SHE IS WATCHIN' 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 JUMPIN' SIGN
INVISIBLE SHIVERS
RUNNIN' DOWN MY SPINE

CUT THE BABY
TAKIN' 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 FILIN' HER NAILS
WHILE THEY'RE
DRAGGIN' THE LAKE

SHE IS WATCHIN' THE DETECTIVES
OH, HE'S SO CUTE
SHE IS WATCHIN' 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

YOU THINK YOU'RE ALONE UNTIL
YOU REALISE 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 SCRATCHIN'
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 WATCHIN'
THE DETECTIVES
DON'T GET CUTE
IT'S JUST LIKE
WATCHIN' THE DETECTIVES

I GET SO ANGRY WHEN
THE TEARDROPS START
BUT HE CAN'T BE WOUNDED
'CAUSE HE'S GOT NO HEART

WATCHIN' THE DETECTIVES
IT'S JUST LIKE
WATCHIN' THE DETECTIVES
WATCHIN' THE DETECTIVES
WATCHIN' THE DETECTIVES

THEY'RE WATCHIN'
THE DETECTIVES
THEY'RE WATCHIN'
THE DETECTIVES

THEY'RE WATCHIN'
THE DETECTIVES
THEY'RE WATCHIN'
THE DETECTIVES
