Phones

Well just give me the beat!
Excuse me
Can someone help me
I've misplaced my love
And she used to talk
With her own mouth
But now her own mouth is sewn shut
Forgive me
I am lonely
Lonely for her touch
Now I used to be
The one thing she needs
But now I'm not good enough
Please help me
Operator
We lost our connection Operator
Where's our communication
Operator
I am in love, all alone, you know,
Cuz she's just always talking on the phone
Lies, lies, pretty lies
They make no sense to me
Now I'm convinced that nobody's ever
Honest when they speak
We need something more
Cuz we've been lost at sea
And we're dead and drowning
In a wave of new technology
Now I'm all alone
Don't answer that phone
It's a social nightmare
And you just don't care
And you just don't care
She made me laugh
Oh now she makes me cry
Now I'm all alone
And I don't know why
And I don't know why
Operator
We lost our connection
Operator
Where's our communication
Operator
I am in love, all alone, you know
Cuz she's just always talking on the phone
She's just always talking
She's just always talking
She's just always talking
Now everybody's talking on the phone
Everybody's talkin
Everybody's talkin
Everybody's talkin
Everybody, everybody
Operator
We lost our connection
Operator
Where's our communication
Operator
I am in love, all alone, you know,
Cuz she's just always talking on the phone
Oh oh
We've lost our connection
Oh oh
Where's our communication
Oh oh
Operator we are in love
All alone, you know, now everybody's talking on phones
