No Doubt – Detective lyrics
Peek in, sneak about
Peek in, sneak about
Your broken hearted detective
Hey girl save the liar
Can't you see his pants on fire
Hey girl, save the liar
Can't you see his pants on fire
My back it hurts again
It aches like history
Caught nothing all day long
Your smiling back at me, but
I feel you must have failed me
Once again you've let me down
My confidence below my knees
Now I need to find you out
Chorus:
Peek in, sneak about
I'm gonna snoop and call you out
I've caught you, you're hands are red
Now I'm your broken hearted detective
Hey, hey hey
Hey lover why you gone?
Hold on I'm almost there
It's too late you've killed the trust
Don't act so unaware
Why are you so destructive?
Do you realize what you've done?
You can't bring it back to life now
What are you running from?
Chorus
I don't like the way it feels
I just want you to be real
Hey girl, save the liar
Can't you see his pants on fire?
Hey girl, save the liar
Can't you see his pants on fire?
I'm rummaging through your closet
Imagining all the worst thoughts
Chorus x2
Peek in, peek in
Peek in, peek in
Peek in, sneak about
I'm gonna snoop and call you out
I've caught you, you're hands are red
Now I'm you're brokenhearted detective
Peek in, sneak about
Your broken hearted detective
Hey girl save the liar
Can't you see his pants on fire
Hey girl, save the liar
Can't you see his pants on fire
My back it hurts again
It aches like history
Caught nothing all day long
Your smiling back at me, but
I feel you must have failed me
Once again you've let me down
My confidence below my knees
Now I need to find you out
Chorus:
Peek in, sneak about
I'm gonna snoop and call you out
I've caught you, you're hands are red
Now I'm your broken hearted detective
Hey, hey hey
Hey lover why you gone?
Hold on I'm almost there
It's too late you've killed the trust
Don't act so unaware
Why are you so destructive?
Do you realize what you've done?
You can't bring it back to life now
What are you running from?
Chorus
I don't like the way it feels
I just want you to be real
Hey girl, save the liar
Can't you see his pants on fire?
Hey girl, save the liar
Can't you see his pants on fire?
I'm rummaging through your closet
Imagining all the worst thoughts
Chorus x2
Peek in, peek in
Peek in, peek in
Peek in, sneak about
I'm gonna snoop and call you out
I've caught you, you're hands are red
Now I'm you're brokenhearted detective
