Splendid Isolation

I want to live alone in the desert

I want to be like Georgia O'Keefe

I want to live on the Upper East Side

And never go down in the street

Like Michael Jackson in Disneyland

Don't have to share it with nobody else

Lock the gates, Goofy, take my hand

And lead me through this world of self

Splendid isolation I don't need no one Splendid isolation

Splendid isolation I don't need no one Splendid isolation

Don't want to wake up with no one beside me

Don't want to take up with nobody new

Don't want nobody coming by without calling first

Don't want nothing to do with you

I'm putting tinfoil up on the windows

Lying down in the dark to dream

I don't want to see their faces

I don't want to hear them scream

Splendid Isolation I don't need no one Splendid Isolation

Splendid Isolation I don't need no one Splendid Isolation

Don't want to wake up with no one beside me

Don't want to take up with nobody new

Don't want nobody coming by without calling first

Don't want nothing to do with you
