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.
