about

Walking In My World was later recorded and released by Po! on the 1996 album Not Marked on the Ordnance Map

lyrics

Conversation’s so polite
You’re looking over my shoulder
Wearing black on top of white
You’re my monochrome nightmare
Sell yourself to those you meet
Don’t waste your time on a loser
People are commodities
And you are who you talk to

You had a party and you didn’t ask me
What do I care
Glad you didn’t ask me I was going elsewhere
Walking in my world

Maybe I lead a boring life
And I get pleasure from small things
You live and die minutiae
The gilded gossip of your kings
A thousand useful contacts
But none of them a friend
What you get is what you give
An opportunity wasted

You had a party and you didn’t ask me
What do I care
Glad you didn’t ask me I was going elsewhere
Walking in my world Yeah
You had a party and you didn’t ask me
What do I care
Glad you didn’t ask me I was going elsewhere
Walking in my world
In my world
