I go out walking on a day less bleak Money in my pocket and salt on the street Cause I wanna see myself the way the windows do Like someone in a movie, soft yellow and blue
I got a new way of walking But you’re not chasing me Why’s everybody sitting on the fence When they could fall for me
I want a name like Gloria Love All the boys ask me to ride in their cars And I wish I could run when the going gets tough But I never get that, I never get that far
I throw a party for nobody but me (just me) My face in the carpet and the sound of the TV Cause I want to see myself the way the ceilings do Like a drop in the ocean, soft yellow and blue
I got a new way of talking But you’re not calling me Why’s everybody sitting on the fence When they could fall for me
I want a name like Gloria Love All the boys ask me to ride in their cars And I wish I could run when the going gets tough But I never get that, I never get that I never get that, ooh, I never get that I never get that, ooh I never get that far
