lyrics
I wanna live all alone in the desert
I wanna be like Georgia O'Keefe
I wanna live on the upper east side
and never go down in the streets
Splendid isolation
I don't need noone
Splendid isolation
Michael Jackson in disneyland
ain't gotta share it with nobody else
Lock the gates, goofy take my hand
and lead me through a world of self
Splendid isolation
I don't need noone
Splendid isolation
Don't wanna wake up with noone beside me
don't wanna take up with somebody new
Don't want nobody comin' by without calling first
Don't want nothin' 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 wanna hear them scream
Splendid isolation
I don't need noone
Splendid Isolation
