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.
