She looks so good that he gets down and begs

She is watching the detectives

"Ooh, he's so cute"

When they shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot
Am G
They beat him up until the teardrops start
F C G
But he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heart
[VERSE 2]
Am G
Long shot at that jumping sign
F G
Invisible shivers running down my spine
Am G
Cut to baby taking off her clothes
F
Close-up of the sign that says "We never close"
[VERSE 3]
Am G
He snatched at you and you match his cigarette
F
She pulls the eyes out with a face like a magnet
Am F
I don't know how much more of this I can take

She's filing her nails while they're dragging the lake
[CHORUS 2]

[VERSE 4]
Am
You think you're alone until you realize you're in it
F
Now fear is here to stay, love is here for a visit
Am
Call it instant justice when it's past the legal limit
F
Someone's scratching at the window, I wonder who is it?
[VERSE 5]
Am
The detectives come to check if you belong to the parents
F
Who are ready to hear the worst about their daughter's disappearance
( G ) Am
Though it nearly took a miracle to get you to stay
N.C. C
It only took my little fingers to blow you away
[CHORUS 3]
G
Just like watching the detectives
C
Don't get cute
G
It's just like watching the detectives
Am G
I get so angry when the teardrops start
F C
But he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heart
G
Watching the detectives

Great tune our band plays it in our sets, it’s a crowd pleaser,
+5
“He snatches at you” is more likely “you snatch a tune and you match a cigarette”
+4
"You snatch a tune, you match her cigarette
She pulls your eyes out with a face like a magnet"
Snatch a tune = humming or whistling whilst lighting a cigarette = trying to be cool and casual...
EC is painting a scene from film noir perhaps?
