I don't have a reputation

Falling faster all the time

Help me make my reputation

I'll help yours if you'll help mine



My clothes are too big for my body

My body's too big for my mind

I don't like humiliation

I can change my clothes

But I don't think I'll change my mind



Hey look! I just bought a beach house

So bring all your friends along

I don't need an explanation

Boss says I must leave right now

Take the night plane to Vermont



Here I go, I'm swinging low

Move out of my way

Come and take a look at what I've found

Here I am, I've got a plan

Don't walk away

My reputation follows me around



Once there was a girl in New York

Wonder where that girl has gone

She was full of adulation

I tried to phone her

Strange the number turns out wrong



I've got all I ever wanted

But what I've got, no-one wants to share

They turned down my application

Please won't you let me in

Seems like no-one ever cares
