Walking in L.A.

[Verse 1]
Look ahead as we pass, try and focus on it
I won't be fooled by a cheap cinematic trick
It must have been just a cardboard cut out of a man
Top-forty cast off from a record stand

[Hook]
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.)

[Verse 2]
I don't know, it could've been a lame jogger maybe
Or someone just about to do the freeway strangler baby
Shopping cart pusher, maybe someone groovy
One thing's for sure, he ain't starring in the movies

[Hook]
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.)

[Bridge]
Won't see a cop walking on the beat
Nobody's walking
Only see them driving cars out on the street
Nobody's walking
Won't see a kid walking home from school
Nobody's walking
Their mothers pick them up in a car pool
Nobody's walking

[Verse 3]
The smog's playing tricks on my eyes
Or is it a skater in a headphone disguise
Maybe somebody who just ran out of gas
Making his way back to the pumps the best way he can

[Hook]
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.)
Walking in L.A., walking in L.A
(Nobody walks in L.A.)
