Be My Number Two
Joe Jackson
4:20I've had that dream again Where I'm flying thirty feet Above the street again Looking through windows There you are, sit down to eat again It's the usual egg foo young You watch TV and then Put the kids to bed But then I see you reaching for my number Then I hate you even more I see it all But no one sees me fly No one feels my pain No one hears me cry No one knows my name It's glamour and pain Glamour and pain Do you remember me Or just the shiny, shiny shoes I had you kiss for me And my lips as smooth as chrome? Were you in ecstasy As you were pumping out a flood Of dollar bills for me? I cried mascara tears If only I could give a fuck about it And though you can't recall I see it all But no one sees me fly No one feels my pain No one hears me cry No one knows my name It's glamour and pain Glamour and pain I'm hanging in the air I look in your window At my own lipstick reflection there And behind it such a precious Son et lumiere Of all the normal stuff About which I'm supposed to care I'd like to smash right through And help myself to your silverware To cut your throat and run Or maybe I'd just laugh at your expression Hooray for super whore I see it all But no one sees me fly No one feels my pain No one hears me cry No one knows my name It's glamour and pain Glamour and pain See me fly Feel my pain Hear me cry Know my name Glamour and pain
