Album: Under Wraps

Paparazzi, can't make the man.
Paparazzi, can't break the man.

Next to the transit lounge see the Paparazzi tears
No one came today from Boston or Tangiers
And in departures - only faceless trippers trip
Loaded with duty free
Help 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 Nicon 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, take 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.
