Some days it gets completely crazy
And I feel like howling at the moon
Then sometimes it feels so easy
Like I was born with a silver spoonOther times you just can't reach me
Seems like I've got a heart of stone
Guess I need my solitude
And I have to make it on my ownWell I guess I'm going A.W.O.L.
Disconnect my telephone
Just like Greta Garbo
I want to be aloneNeed to make some real connection
Baby something's just got to give
'cause I've been too long in exile
I've been grinding at the millToo long to decode all the secrets
Have to get some elbow room
Most people think that everything
Is just what they assumeWell I know I'm going A.W.O.L.
Tell everyone I'm not at home
Just like Greta Garbo
I just want to be aloneWell I'm going out to L.A.
I wanna get my business done
Then I'm going on to Vegas
Then I'm going on the runIf anybody asks you have you seen me
Please just tell them no
'cause I'm living on the outside
And I have nowhere to goWell I guess I'm going A.W.O.L.
Disconnect my telephone
Just like Greta Garbo
I just want to be aloneI just want to be alone
Disconnect my telephone
Just like Greta Garbo
I just want to be alone
