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
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A.
(Nobody walks in L.A.)
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A.
(Only a nobody walks in L.A.)
I don't know, 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
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A.
(Nobody walks in L.A.)
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A.
(Only a nobody walks in L.A.)
You won't see a cop walkin' on the beat
(Nobody's walkin', walkin', walkin')
You only see 'em drivin' cars out on the street
(Nobody's walkin', walkin', walkin')
You won't see a kid walkin' home from school
(Nobody's walkin', walkin', walkin')
Their mothers pick them up in a car pool
Nobody's walkin', walkin'
Smog's playing tricks on my eyes
Or is it skater in a headphone disguise
Maybe somebody just ran out of gas
Making his way back to the pumps the best way he can
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A.
(Nobody walks in L.A.)
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A.
(Only a nobody walks in L.A.)
Walkin' in L.A.
Walkin' in L.A.
(Nobody walks in L.A.)
