Voyeur

Track down a satellite, beam in the action Life lies bleeding live in your living room Our senses on remote control, overkill on overload From Lockerbie to Lebanon's getting closer every day Hollywood to Hungerford's an impression away I like to watch implausible pledges of polite politicians I like to watch them even more than my video nasties I like to watch The bleating of a bimbo, a back-stabbing beauty queen Titillating tabloids trigger off a wet dream into action A fatal attraction, private lives are up for auction A cupboard full of skeletons are coming out to play I like to watch disasters in replay and rerun in slow-mo I like to watch on-the-spot interviews, kicking in front doors I like to watch To watch as my face is reflected in blank TV screens The programs are over, I like to pretend that that's Me up there making headlines, camera closeups Catching my right side I don't care if it's only a moment As long as it's peak-time Just as long as all of my friends and family see me The world will know my name - come on down I like to watch psychologists speculate, analysts analyze I like to watch my methods and motives, the topic of talk shows I like to watch Switch off, turn on
