In Santa Monica,
in the wintertime,
The lazy streets
so undemanding
I walk into the
crowd
In Santa Monica,
you get your
coffee from
The coolest places
on the
promenade
Where people dress
just so
Beauty so unavoidable,
everywhere
you turn
It's there
I sit and wonder
what am
I doing here?
But on the telephone
line
I am anyone
I am anything I
want to be
I could be a supermodel
or
Norman Mailer
And you wouldn't
know the difference
Or would you?
In Santa Monica,
all the people got
modern names like
Jake or Mandy
And modern bodies
too
In Santa Monica,
on the boulevard
You'll have to dodge
those
in-line skaters
Or they'll knock
you down
I never felt so
lonely,
Never felt so out
of place
I never wanted something
more
than this
But on the telephone
line
I am anyone
I am anything I
want to be
I can be a supermodel
or
Norman Mailer
And you wouldn't
know the difference
See on the telephone
line,
I am any height,
I am any age, I
want to be
I can be a caped
crusader,
or space invader
And you wouldn't
know the difference
Or would you?
(Thank you for calling
Disneyland)
