Watching the Detectives (Live with Metropole Orkest) Elvis Costello (Ft. Metropole Orkest)

[Verse 1]
Nice girls, not one with a defect
Cellophane shrink-wrapped, so correct
The red dogs under illegal legs
She looks so good that he gets down and begs

[Chorus]
She is watching the detectives
Oh, 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
When hе's got no heart

[Verse 2]
Long shot at that jumping sign
Invisible shivers running down my spinе
Cut to baby taking off her clothes
Close-up of the sign that says, "We never close"
He snatched 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

[Chorus]
She is watching the detectives
Oh, 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 when he's got no heart
When he's got no heart
