Lyrics Marillion – Incommunicado

Text:

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 Tussauds you’ll see

Incommunicado, incommunicado

I’m a Marquee veteran, a multimedia bonafide 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
