My image is hard My attitude heavy
I take you out with the things that I say I draw the crowds and whenever I'm ready I've got what it takes to blow them all away I am your social and your cultural leader I create the fads and make all the scenes You know about me from your weekly reader I'm on the cover of your magazines 'Cause I am one of the noticeable ones - notice me I am one of the noticeable ones - notice me I am one of the noticeable ones, notice me - notice me Notice me - noticeable one I am one of the noticeable ones, notice me - notice me Notice me - noticeable one My private life is scandalized by the public But that's the price I have to pay for my fame And all the liggers in my way with their cute tricks Are getting over just by dropping my name 'Cause I am one of the noticeable ones - notice me I am one of the noticeable ones - notice me I am one of the noticeable ones, notice me - notice me Notice me - noticeable one I am one of the noticeable ones, notice me - notice me Notice me - noticeable one I am one of the noticeable ones, notice me - notice me Notice me - noticeable one I am one of the noticeable ones, notice me - notice me Notice me - noticeable one Noticeable one - notice me (repeat to fade) |

Something feels so strange tonight
it's not wrong but it's just not right some hidden complications, fill me with hesitation and it gets so dark in here I can't see through doubts and fears walled in by expectation, I need a deviation change in perspective, alternative view to help me see clearly, observe something new All I want is a window to look through All I need is a window to look through It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway All I want is a window to look through All I need is a window to look through It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway outside the world's so dangerous It's hard to find someone to trust fills me with reservation deives me into hibernation I watch whats going on but I don't want to belong leave me in my introspection safely behind protection All I want is a window to look through All I need is a window to look through It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway All I want is a window to look through All I need is a window to look through It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway looking through windows at the world looking through windows at the world safe behind windows from the world safe behind windows from the world watching my window world go by just watching my window world go by without my window who am I without my window who am I All I want is a window to look through All I need is a window to look through It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway All I want is a window to look through All I need is a window to look through It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway All I want All I want is a window to look through All I want All I need is a window to look through All I need It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway All I want is a window to look through All I need is a window to look through It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway |

Don't - tell me what to do
And don't you ask me where I'm going to I have to do what's right for me Why is that so hard for you to see? Tryin to get along with you is not an easy thing to do Your suspicious nature drives me mad You're wrecking everything that we had It ain't none of your business Where I'm going It ain't none of your business Who I'm seeing It ain't none of your business So stop fooling around with my life You can't possibly know what it's like To be inside of me I'm on my own why can't you just leave me alone? I have always trusted you If I can do it you can too What I do is my concern Now you're just gonna have to learn It ain't none of your business Where I'm going It ain't none of your business Who I'm seeing It ain't none of your business What I'm doing It ain't none of your business It ain't You've got to take me serious you're making me delirious I feel like someone who's in jail Now let go of my shirt tail This kind of thing has got to stop Relationship is on the rocks I can't take it anymore You're driving me right out of the door It ain't none of your business Who I'm seeing It ain't none of your business What I'm doing It ain't none of your business It ain't It ain't none of your business It ain't none of your business It ain't none of your business It ain't none of your business It ain't none of your business It ain't none of your business It ain't none of your business It ain't It ain't none of your business |

Look ahead as we pass, try and focus on it
I won't be fooled by a cheap cinematic trick It must have been just a cardboard cut out of a man Top-forty cast off from a record stand Walkin' in L.A. Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A. Walkin' in L.A. Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A. I don't know could've been a lame jogger maybe Or someone just about to do the freeway strangler baby Shopping cart pusher or maybe someone groovie One thing's for sure, he isn't starring in the movies. 'Cause he's walkin' in L.A. Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A. Walkin' in L.A. Walkin' in L.A., only a nobody walks in L.A. Walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' You won't see a cop walkin' on the beat Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' You only see 'em drivin' cars out on the street Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' You won't see a kid walkin' home from school Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' Their mothers pick 'em up in a car pool Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' Walkin' in L.A. Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A. Walkin' in L.A. Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A. Could it be that the smog's playing tricks on my eyes or is it a rollerskater in some kind of headphone disguise Maybe somebody who just ran out of gas, Making his way back to the pumps the best way he can. Walkin' in L.A. Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A. Walkin' in L.A. Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A. Walkin' in L.A. Walkin' in L.A., nobody walks in L.A. Walkin' in L.A. Walkin' in L.A., only a nobody walks in L.A. Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' Nobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' Nobody walks in L.A |

You can feel it closing in on you but there's not much you can do
It's not a thing you can put your finger on, but you know when it's gone Endless stream of highways neon roadsigns and telephone lines A little town somewhere in the mid-west gonna put your patience to the test It's the U.S. Drag, U.S. Drag, It's the U.S. Drag Their ain't no drag like the U.S. Drag Music down a windy street, half a glance from strangers you don't wanna meet Juke box blaring, stale beat, mixes with gamblers, gangsters boredom & fear in the pale blue T.V. light It's the U.S. Drag, U.S. Drag, It's the U.S. Drag Their ain't no drag like the U.S. Drag An it's closin' in on you It's the U.S. Drag It's the U.S. Drag and there's nothing you can do U.S. Drag U.S. Drag It's the U.S. Drag It's the U.S. Drag |

I can't bear the thought of leaving you
But I don't dare to stay My heart and soul are at a tug of war But my choice is made Left with emptiness, no second thoughts There's nothing left to say There was time enough to tell you that you were the only one I held thoughts inside me when I was the lonely one You so thoughtlessly took all from me and drained my life away All I have left to give are my tears All I have left to give are my tears All the time spent through all of the years All I have left to give are my tears All, all my tears All my tears All my tears All my tears They say time will heal everything Reason and common sense But with time and reason surely comes The loss of innocence Well I've outgrown this kind of silly game I just don't want to play Who'd have thought from such a simple start this would get so involved? Who'd have thought that this would ever end being unresolved And for now i think i've had enough so lets call it a day.. All I have left to give are my tears All I have left to give are my tears All the time spent through all of the years All I have left to give are my tears All If there were someone i could turn to it would be easier for me It's not a easy thing to go through without a reason to believe They say time will heal everything Reason and common sense But with time and reason surely comes The loss of innocence Well I've outgrown this kind of silly game I just don't want to play Who'd have thought from such a simple start this would get so involved? Who'd have thought that this would ever end being unresolved And for now i think i've had enough so lets call it a day.. All I have left to give are my tears All I have left to give are my tears All the time spent through all of the years All I have left to give are my tears All, all my tears All my tears All my tears All my tears All my tears All my tears All my tears All my tears |

All I can see is what's in front of me All I know is what you tell me now All I know is what you tell me now So tell me now I'll continue on I know somehow I can't remember how it felt just then I can't seem to remember when I can't seem to remember when Even then Did it feel the way it should? Did it feel really good? I want to be back there now Wish I could then you would Wonder if you held me tight and did you shield me from my fright? Where are you now? Where are you now... are you now? All I can see is what's in front of me All I know is what you tell me now It doesn't seem the same somehow All I can see is what's in front of me All I know is what you tell me now It doesn't seem the same somehow In the here and now now and then In the here and now now and then Did it feel the way it should?

Do you hear me
Do you care Do you hear me Do you care My lips are moving and the sound's coming out The words are audible but I have my doubts That you realize what has been said You look at me as if you're in a daze It's like the feeling at the end of the page when you realize you don't know what you just read What are words for when no one listens anymore What are words for when no one listens What are words for when no one listens it's no use talkin' at all I might as well go up and talk to a wall 'cause all the words are having no effect at all It's a funny thing am I all alone Something has to happen to change the direction What little filters through is giving you the wrong impression It's a sorry state I say to myself What are words for when no one listens anymore What are words for when no one listens What are words for when no one listens it's no use talkin at all Do you hear me Do you care Do you hear me Do you care Let me get by Over your dead body Hope to see you soon When will I know Doors three feet wide with no locks open Walking always backwards in the faces of strangers Time could be my friend But it's less than nowhere now less than nowhere now less than nowhere now now ow ow ow... Pursue it further and another thing you'll find Not only are they deaf and dumb they could be going blind and no one notices I think I'll dye my hair blue Media overload bombarding you with action It's getting near impossible to cause distraction Someone answer me before I pull out the plug What are words for when no one listens anymore What are words for when no one listens What are words for when no one listens it's no use talkin at all What are words for when no one listens anymore What are words for when no one listens What are words for when no one listens it's no use talkin at all Do you hear me Do you care Do you hear me Do you care tell me what are words for Do you hear me tell me what are words for Do you care tell me what are words for Do you hear me so tell me what are words for Do you care so tell me what are words for Do you hear me tell me what are words for so tell me what are words for Do you care so tell me what are words for Do you hear me tell me what are words for so tell me what are words for Do you care so tell me what are words for |

Noone ever gets too close to me I'm selfish - stand-offish You'll never guess what i'm gonna do next I'm impulsive ... compulsive I'll get over if it's the last thing i do I'll make it.. i won't fake it You can tag along if you've got nothing better to do I'll show you... i won't slow you I'm kicking down bad streets Just look at what i'm becoming I'm dancing to my beat Just look at the game i'm running I'm just kicking down bad streets I'm having fun just looking out for number one I'm just dancing to my beat Look at me go i know a lot of things that you don't know I'm kicking down bad streets Just look at what i'm becoming I'm kickin down bad streets.. bad streets bad streets... I'm kickin down bad streets i'm kickin down bad streets |

So she says that you need too much attention
What is the answer to the rock n roll suspension? Will you remain alone to spend your old age pension? To reconcile with the hours of school you spent in detention? When she is gone where will you regain this adoration? Now what will you declare to be your destination? Can you depend on your reflection To disguise your love contamination? (shadoop!) do do-do do-do ooh! (shadoop!) do do-do do-do! So she says that you need too much attention What is the answer to this rock n roll suspension? Do you examine your projections Based on the impulses of your impressions? Just know only you will live your reputation Will the culmination be perfection? Can you depend on your reflection To disguise your love contamination? (shadoop!) do do-do do-do ooh! (shadoop!) do do-do do-do! Too much attention - too much attention This rock n roll suspension - so she says Too much attention - this rock n roll This rock n roll suspension - suh-suh-suh-suspension Too much attention - what is the answer? This rock n roll suspension - this rock n roll suspension Too much attention - this rock n roll This rock n roll suspension - it's all misfunction Roll rock rock |

No Way - no way out
No way - no way out I'm watching all my friends Searching so desperately They think they know but they don't really see They can't find peace of mind They're wasting all their time Looking for something That they'll never find I face the music n dance Be what I have to be There's no escapin from it now for me Who cares what it all means? 'Cause there can be no doubts You won't find me searching For an easy way... out No way - no way out No way - no way out Everyone's so afraid In this atomic age Can't seem to handle livin' day to day Becomin so confused They don't know what's in view They seek escape in everything they do I've had my fill of kicks I'm tired of drugs and sex And I don't worry 'bout what's happening next Who cares what it all means 'Cause there can be no doubts You won't find me searchin' For an easy way I'm not searchin for a way out I'm not searchin for a way out I'm not searchin for a way out You won't find me searchin for an easy way out I'm not searchin for a way out All you wanna do is seek escape escape escape No way out No way out I know - no way out There's no way out for me I know - no way out Just what i have to be No way - no way out No way - no way out Days go by - no way out It's getting late Don't you know - no way out You're tempting fate No way - no way out No way - no way out |
