Testo Walking in l.A. Missing Persons

Walking in l.A.

Look ahead as we pass, try and focus on it
I won't be fooled by a cheap cinematic trick
It must've been just a cardboard cut-out of a man
Top 40, casting from the record stands

Walking in L.A.- Walking in L.A.
Nobody walks in L.A.
Walking in L.A.- Walking in L.A.
Nobody walks in L.A.

I dunno, could've been a lame jogger, baby
Or someone just about to do the freeway strangler, baby
Shopping cart pusher, or maybe someone groovy
One things for sure he isn't starring in the movies, cause he's

Walking in L.A.- Walking in L.A.
Nobody walks in L.A.
Walking in L.A.- Walking in L.A.
Only a nobody walks in L.A.

(nobody's walkin walkin walkin walkin...)
You won't see a cop walking on the beat
(nobody's walkin walkin walkin walkin...)You only see them driving cars out in the street
(nobody's walkin walkin walkin walkin...)
You won't see kids walking home from school
(nobody's walkin walkin walkin walkin...)
Their mothers pick them up in a car pool
(nobody's walkin walkin walkin walkin...)

Walking in L.A.- Walking in L.A.
Nobody walks in L.A.
Walking in L.A.- Walking in L.A.
Nobody walks in L.A.

Could it be that the smog's playing tricks on my eyes?
Or it's a rollerskater, some kinda headphone disguise
Maybe somebody who just ran outta gas
Making his way back to the pump the best way he can

Walking in L.A.- Walking in L.A.
Nobody walks in L.A.
Walking in L.A.- Walking in L.A.
Nobody walks in L.A.
