Headphones

Lately i´ve been making plans to make my way out

Fingernails are growing short, there ain´t no doubt

Everybody wants another part of my wings

I gotta keep you out, shut you out so i plug them in

I got my headphones

Me and my headphones

Radio is killing me and tv´s a bore

All i want today is something i can ignore

I got my headphones

Me and my headphones

I gotta let go

I need my...

Come and hear me, gotta listen

Turn it up for my final transmission

Come and hear me, gotta listen

Watch me go, I´m a man on a mission

Do you read me? Are you out there?

Gonna run and make my way outta here

Come and hear me, gotta listen

Gotta listen - Are you listening

So this just in: my broadcast ends

But this ain´t good-bye, this is good luck, my friends

I got my headphones

Me and my headphones

I get my batteries, get my tapes, get my player

I get up, I get going and I´m getting better

I need my headphones

Me and my headphones

I get my batteries, get my tapes, get my player

I get up, I get going and I´m getting better

Come and hear me, gotta listen

Turn it up for my final transmission

Come and hear me, gotta listen

Watch me go, I´m a man on a mission

Do you read me? Are you out there?

Gonna run and make my way outta here

Come and hear me, gotta listen

Gotta listen - Are you listening (to me)?

(She kissed me in New York City

She held my hand in Tokyo

She walked me down to Leicester Square

And she found me passed out in Soho

She showed me round in Dublin

She even followed me to Rome

She kept me warm in Warsaw

And she always guided me back home

She´s as good as it gets, she´s as good as it gets)

Can you hear me? Are you listening?

Turn it up for my final transmission

Can you hear me? Are you listening?

Watch me go, I´m a man on a mission

Do you read me? Are you out there?

Gotta run and make my way outta here

Can you hear me? Are you listening?

Are you listening? Are you listening?
