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 street   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 want to wake up with on 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 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      Don'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 you
