[ti:Run Diana Run]
[ar:Don Mclean]
[al:Addicted to black]
[00:18.01] Run Diana run
[00:19.51] Think they're getting nearer
[00:21.27] Run Diana run
[00:23.06] They're in the rearview mirror
[00:24.80] Run Diana run
[00:26.55] Don't it make you frantic
[00:28.25] Run Diana run
[00:31.98] They're crossing the Atlantic
[00:35.50]
[00:41.10] Oh well there once was a princess
[00:44.30] Who lived a fairy tale
[00:47.89] Her love was very strong
[00:51.38] Her heart was very frail
[00:54.31]
[00:55.17] The camera really loved her
[00:58.46] Oh she always caused a stir!
[01:02.17] She dressed in silks and silver
[01:05.78] Which looked quite good on her
[01:09.89] I said she dressed in silks and silver
[01:13.79] Which looked quite good on her
[01:15.64]
[01:18.49] The camera shot her every day
[01:21.74] In fact it shot her dead
[01:25.29] They never really touched her
[01:28.74] Just took her soul instead
[01:31.22]
[01:32.31] Run Diana run
[01:34.01] Think they're getting nearer
[01:35.76] Run Diana run
[01:37.61] They're in the rearview mirror
[01:39.27] Run Diana run
[01:41.08] Don't it make you frantic
[01:42.83] Run Diana run
[01:46.48] They're crossing the Atlantic
[01:50.46]
[01:55.38] The lens is in focus
[01:59.23] The flash is really hot
[02:02.50] Man, they swarm around like locusts
[02:05.94] Just to get a better shot
[02:09.50] She's such a public figure
[02:12.94] I'll bet they just can't get enough
[02:17.09] The princess has it easy
[02:20.15] The readers have it tough
[02:24.35] I say the princess has it easy
[02:28.06] The readers have it tough
[02:30.25]
[02:32.65] They like to feed on fantasy
[02:36.05] Like lions feed on meat
[02:39.59] They like to shoot her every day
[02:43.16] And bring her home to eat
[02:46.40]
[02:46.65] Run Diana run
[02:48.65] Think they're getting nearer
[02:50.16] Run Diana run
[02:51.96] They're in the rearview mirror
[02:53.66] Run Diana run
[02:55.40] Don't it make you frantic
[02:57.16] Run Diana run
[03:00.82] They're crossing the Atlantic
[03:04.37]
[03:17.43] They like to feed on fantasy
[03:20.84] Like lions feed on meat
[03:24.23] They like to shoot her every day
[03:28.04] And bring her home to eat
[03:31.12]
[03:31.73] Run Diana run
[03:33.32] Think they're getting nearer
[03:35.08] Run Diana run
[03:36.77] They're in the rearview mirror
[03:38.56] Run Diana run
[03:40.40] Don't it make you frantic
[03:42.05] Run Diana run
[03:45.76] They're crossing the Atlantic
[03:49.09]
[03:54.84] Photographers can kill you
[03:58.08] The camera is their gun
[04:01.63] They shoot their victim down
[04:05.14] And then they start to run
[04:08.83] It's just assassination
[04:12.38] With aperture and flash
[04:15.84] But it feeds a voyeur nation
[04:19.34] On royalty for cash
[04:23.50] I said it feeds a voyeur nation
[04:27.24] On royalty for cash
[04:29.97]
[04:32.46] The princess never found herself
[04:35.31] Except on tabloid pages
[04:38.90] You can be killed at certain times
[04:42.50] By photographic rages
[04:45.16]
[04:45.77] Run Diana run
[04:47.91] Think they're getting nearer
[04:49.45] Run Diana run
[04:51.37] They're in the rearview mirror
[04:53.27] Run Diana run
[04:55.08] Don't it make you frantic
[04:56.78] Run Diana run
[05:00.33] They're crossing the Atlantic
