Ain’t the pictures enough, why do you go through so much
To get the stories you need, so you can bury me
You’ve got the people confused, you tell the stories you choose
You try to get me to lose the man I really am

You keep on stalking me, invading my privacy
Won’t you just let me be
‘Cause your cameras can’t control, the minds of those who know
That you’ll even sell your soul just to get your story sold

I need my privacy, (Oh no) yeah, yeah, I need my privacy, yeah, yeah
So paparazzi, (Oh no) yeah, yeah, get away from me
Just get away from me (Yeah, yeah)

Some of you still wonder why, one of my friends had to die
To get the message across, that yet you haven’t heard
My friend was chased and confused, like many others I knew
But on that cold winter night, my pride was snatched away

She get no second chance, she ridiculed and harassed
Please tell me why, oh no
Now there’s a lesson to learn, respect’s not given, it’s earned
Stop maliciously attacking my integrity

I need my privacy, (Oh no) yeah, yeah, I need my privacy, (Oh no) yeah, yeah
So paparazzi, (Mercy) yeah, yeah, just get away from me
Just get away from me (Yeah, yeah)

Now there’s a lesson to learn, stories are twisted and turned
Stop maliciously attacking my integrity

I need my privacy, (Oh no) yeah, yeah, (Oh no now) I need my privacy, (Oh no) yeah, yeah (Oh no)
So paparazzi, (Oh my) yeah, yeah, (No, no, no) get away from me (Oh no), yeah, yeah (Oh my)

I need my privacy, (You don’t do it) yeah, yeah, (Please, please don’t do it) I need my privacy, (Get away from me, get away) yeah, yeah
So paparazzi, (I’m tired of stalking, walking, talking, stalking) yeah, yeah, (You’re just bothering me) just get away from me, (Just bothering me, just bothering me, oh no, ow) yeah, yeah

My privacy (You just)
I need my privacy (You just do it)
(Yeah, yeah) (Oh my)
My privacy (Privacy)
So paparazzi
(Yeah, yeah) (Hee, hee, hee)
My privacy (My privacy)
I need my privacy (My privacy)
(Yeah, yeah) (Privacy)
My privacy (My privacy, no)
Get away from me
(Yeah, yeah)
Privacy babe, why’d you do it

Just, you just let it, hah
