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 streetSplendid Isolation
I don't need no one
Splendid IsolationMichael Jackson in Disneyland
Don't have to share it with nobody else
Lock the gates, Goofy, take my hand
And lead me through the World of SelfSplendid Isolation
I don't need no one
Splendid IsolationDon'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 youI'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 screamSplendid Isolation
I don't need no one
Splendid IsolationSplendid Isolation
I don't need no one
Splendid Isolation
