Paparazzi

Paparazzi, can't make the man.

Paparazzi, can't break the man.

Next to the transit lounge

See the paparazzi tears.

No-one came in today

From boston or tangiers.

And in departures

Only faceless trippers trip,

Loaded with duty free

Held in white knuckle grip.

Snap it up, flash away

Steal a camel for a day.

Break the story in heavy type

The news is running late tonight.

Be-decked with nikon necklaces

Hear the paparazzi cries.

Under their noses walk

The famous in disguise.

Conspicuously huddled there

But no-one stops to look.

They've got their crayons out

To colour in the book.

Snap it up, flash away

Steal a camel for a day.

Break the story in heavy type

Paparazzi won't be home tonight.

Paparazzi - write it down.

Paparazzi - turn it around.

Paparazzi - take it, fake it,

Break it.

`cos it's a story.

Now someone's cut the lines

Communication's down.

All photo film is fogged.

Celebrities surround

And jab their fingers at me.

They kiss but I can't tell.

Even poor paparazzi

Must have privacy as well.

Snap it up, flash away

Steal a camel for a day.

Break the story in heavy type

The news is running late tonight.

Snap it up, flash away

Steal a camel for a day.

Break the story in heavy type

Paparazzi won't be home tonight.
