Californian boys and New York city girls are overtaking me   They’re so damn clever you see   And I’ve been sitting on my own for far too long   There must be something wrong. Something’s going on      Everyone walks a little fast today, everyone’s just a little further away,   And everyone’s got it going on in a big way      Could you be loved when you’re lost without a trace?   Could you be loved even though you’ve got such an ugly face?   Could you be somebody’s only saving grace?   Could you be loved?      A thousand taxis full of faces pass me by, they’re ignoring me   They’re far too busy you see   As all the businessmen cling to their girlfriends’ hands   So they can take them home, to get them on their own      If they smile then their makeup starts to fade   If they kiss then their lipstick smears away   If they fuck, then they needn’t have bothered in the first place      And I watch them all go past   And I still can’t move a limb   And I watch them all go past
