Lyrics

(Fish, steve rothery, mark kelly, pete trewavas, ian mosley)

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 afficionados

But I don't want to be the backpage interview
I don't want launderette anonymity
I want my handprints in the concrete on sunset boulevard
A dummy in tussauds you'll see
Incommunicado, incommunicado, incommunicado, incommunicado

I'm a marquee veteran, a multi-media 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 toupet 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, 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, incommunicado, incommunicado
It's the only way
Incommunicado, incommunicado, incommunicado, incommunicado
