Hopes dashed to the floor
Like shattered teenage dreams
Boys living next door are never what they seem
A walk in the park can become a bad dream
People are staring and following me
This is my only escape from it all
Watching a film or a face on the wall

(Refrain)
Robert DeNiro's waiting
Talking Italian
Robert DeNiro's waiting
Talking Italian

I don't want a boy, I've got a man of steel
Don't come any closer
I don't wanna feel
Your breathing, your touching, but nothing's for free
I never want this to happen to me
Don't try to change me you're wasting your time
Now I've got something much better in mind

(Repeat chorus)

A walk in the park can become a bad dream
People are staring and following me
This is my only escape from it all
Watching a film or a face on the wall
