The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Everything's been grand since you left the crypt
All the kids are sporting cemetery lips
And they know
That you're a mess of all that is classic
You're the worst of all that is magic
You're the reason I don't love anything
Oh ring ring
You only call me when you're crying
You only need me when he leaves
You won't confess unless you're dying
You only kiss on New Years Eve
You only want me when I'm taken
You only kick me when I'm do-do-do-do-do-down
You only call me when you're crying
Oh but it's such a lovely sound
Ba-ba-ra pa-pa-pa-ra-pa
Honest question - "how we gonna knock these boots?"
You can only make it if it's under the fuze
Yeah, me too
My mama tells me that you are a godless
Papa tells me love gets my baldness
They're the reasons I do whatever you say
Yeah okay,
You only call me when you're crying
You only need me when he leaves
You won't confess unless you're dying
You only kiss on New Years Eve
You only want me when I'm taken
You only kick me when I'm do-do-do-do-do-down
You only call me when you're crying
Oh but it's such a lovely sound
Ba-ba-ra pa-pa-pa-ra-pa
..Crying…
You only call me when you're crying
You only call me when you're crying
You only call me when you're crying
You only call me when you're crying
