Hello Operator

Hello, operator
I would like to place a call
To the pale gray telephone
That is hanging on the wall
I know this sounds crazy, but
Could you patch me through?
So she does not hear me ringing
I will wait, I've got nothing else to do
So when she finally picks me up
Checking for a dial-tone
To finger in the number of
Her new lover's telephone
I will be resting on the earlobe
That I used to hunt and peck
I will slowly wrap myself around her pretty little neck
I'll begin the explanation as to why she cannot breathe
You should not have been unfaithful
You should not have ever fucked with me
