Incommunicado

Marillion · Official Bootleg Box Set 2 [2010]

I'd be really pleased to meet you if I could remember your name

But I got problems of the memory ever since I got a winner in the fame game

I'm a citizen of Legoland travellin' incommunicado

And I don't give a damn for the Fleet Street aficionados



But I don't want to be the back-page interview

I don't want launderette anonymity

I want my hand prints in the concrete on Sunset Boulevard

A dummy in Tussaud's you'll see



Incommunicado, incommunicado



I'm a Marquee veteran, a multimedia bona fide celebrity

I've got an allergy to Perrier, daylight and responsibility

I'm a rootin'-tootin' cowboy, the Peter Pan, the street credibility

Always taking the point with the dawn patrol fraternity



Sometimes it seems like I've been here before

When I hear opportunity kicking in my door

Call it synchronicity call it deja vu

I just put my faith in destiny - it's the way that I choose



But I don't want to be a tin can tied

To the bumper of a wedding limousine

Or currently residing in the where are they now file

A toupee on the cabaret scene

I want to do adverts for American Express cards

Talk shows on prime time TV

A villa in France, my own cocktail bar

And that's where you're gonna find me



Incommunicado, incommunicado



Sometimes it seems like I've been here before

When I hear opportunity kicking in my door

Call it synchronicity call it deja vu

I just put my faith in destiny - it's the way that I choose



Incommunicado, incommunicado

It's the only way
