| [00:00.00] | 作词 : Costello |
| [01:06.93] | Nice girls not one with a defect, |
| [01:11.45] | cellophane shrink-wrapped, so correct. |
| [01:14.17] | Red dogs under illegal legs. |
| [01:19.34] | She looks so good that he gets down and begs. |
| [01:25.71] | |
| [01:26.12] | She is watching the detectives. |
| [01:28.89] | "ooh, he's so cute!" |
| [01:32.49] | She is watching the detectives |
| [01:35.19] | when they shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot. |
| [01:39.43] | They beat him up until the teardrops start, |
| [01:42.24] | but he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heart. |
| [01:46.41] | |
| [02:03.94] | Long shot of that jumping sign, |
| [02:06.90] | Visible shivers running down my spine. |
| [02:10.23] | Cut the baby taking off her clothes. |
| [02:12.60] | Close-up of the sign that says,"We never close" |
| [02:15.93] | You snatch a tune, you a match a cigarette, |
| [02:19.21] | She pulls the eyes out with a face like a magnet. |
| [02:22.47] | I don't know how much more of this I can take. |
| [02:26.24] | She's filing her nails while they're dragging the lake. |
| [02:33.12] | |
| [02:34.19] | She is watching the detectives. |
| [02:36.52] | "ooh, he's so cute!" |
| [02:41.19] | She is watching the detectives |
| [02:43.70] | when they shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot. |
| [02:47.95] | They beat him up until the teardrops start, |
| [02:50.82] | but he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heart. |
| [02:54.83] | |
| [04:03.43] | You think you're alone until you realize you're in it. |
| [04:05.73] | Now fear is here to stay. Love is here for a visit. |
| [04:09.22] | They call it instant justice when it's past the legal limit. |
| [04:12.49] | Someone's scratching at the window. I wonder who is it? |
| [04:15.51] | The detectives come to check if you belong to the parents |
| [04:19.05] | who are ready to hear the worst about their daughter's disappearance. |
| [04:22.36] | Though it nearly took a miracle to get you to stay, |
| [04:25.02] | it only took my little fingers to blow you away. |
| [04:30.96] | |
| [04:33.14] | Just like watching the detectives. |
| [04:35.59] | Don't get cute!" |
| [04:38.05] | It's just like watching the detectives. |
| [04:43.69] | I get so angry when the teardrops start, |
| [04:45.58] | but he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heart. |
| [04:58.14] | Watching the detectives. |
| [05:02.17] | It's just like watching the detectives. |
