DURAN DURAN LYRICS - Red Carpet Massacre

"Red Carpet Massacre"



Dark sun rose on the ridge cut clear across the sky

As good a day as any to die

No reservation madam

No reason to know why

Running late stiletto heels

Try to loosen up the wheels



You spend your life in preparation for this day

Breathe in the air; it's loaded with fame

Check out those weapons sister before you hit the fray

String of pearls meet bits of gems

Enter the battle of the lenses



Red carpet massacre

Don't want to hassle you

Red carpet massacre

Deathstalk papparazzi yeah

Red carpet massacre

It's going to mess with you

We're in business

You're on the hit list



There's not so many now still standing on their feet

Their knives are out and singing so sweet

Engage with sharper minds that cut you when you meet

Anyplace to mess around

When someone wants to take you down



Maybe you think you're above this

But baby we know that you love it

Baby you know where to shove it

Apply your lipstick

'Fore dying in public



Red carpet massacre

Don't want to hassle you

Red carpet massacre

Deathstalk papparazzi yeah

Red carpet massacre

Don't want to mess with you

Now it's time

Next in line

We're so busted

Done and dusted
