I wanna live alone in the desert I wanna be like Georgia O'Keefe I wanna live on the Upper East Side And never go down into the street Splendid isolation, I don't need no one Splendid isolation Michael 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 self Splendid isolation, I don't need no one Splendid isolation Don't wanna wake up with no one beside me Don't wanna take up with nobody new Don't want nobody coming by without calling first Don't want nothing to do with you, 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
