Lyrics
Telephone
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.
Next to your chest like a locket
Or on vibrate in your pocket
You’ve got it in your hand everywhere you go
Or close to your mouth when your voice is low
You freak out if I ever get busted
Buy another me no matter what the cost is
We’re inseparable, disconnectable
Without me you never go too far
I just wanna be your telephone
Keep me on
24/7 365 days
Think about all the time we could waste
I just wanna be your telephone
Never let me go
I know every dirty secret that you keep
Crazy as shit that no one sees
Doo do do doo doo doo
Doo dodo doo doo
Doo do do doo doo doo
Doo dodo doo doo
Never would have to be jealous
When you’re talking to all of those fellas
'Cause I’m the only one that’s ever gonna be
So well acquainted with your anatomy
Like a shoulder to cry on
I’m the one thing you rely on
It’s like a drug
I’m so in love
Never let anyone break us up
I just wanna be your telephone
Keep me on
24/7 365 days
Think about all the time we could waste
I just wanna be your telephone
Never let me go
I know every dirty secret that you keep
Crazy as shit that no-one sees
Doo do do doo doo doo
Doo dodo doo doo
Doo do do doo doo doo
Doo dodo doo doo
So here comes the come-up
Guess I better sum up
I’ll never be what you need
'Cause you love that toy
More than this boy
Charge me up, turn me on
I love it when you use me
All night long
Charge me up, turn me on
I love it when you use me
All night long
Charge me up, turn me on
I love it when you use me
All night long
Charge me up, turn me on
I love it when you use me
Use me
I just wanna be your telephone
Keep me on
24/7 365 days
Think about all the time we could waste
I just wanna be your telephone
Never let me go
I know every dirty secret that you keep
Crazy as shit that no-one sees
I just wanna be your telephone
Doo do do doo doo doo
Doo dodo doo doo
I just wanna be your telephone oo oo
Doo do do doo doo doo
Doo dodo doo doo
Charge me up, turn me on
I love it when you use me
All night long
