Call and call my phone thinking I'm doing nothing better
I'm just waiting for it to stop so I can use it again
I was gonna call you back, I swear
Just as soon as I felt up to it
You call and call my phone thinking I'm doing nothing better
I'm just waiting for it to stop so I can get back to it
How funny family is actually fuckin' has you in bits
Your mum has good genes, but dad's are ripped
Dance like no one is awkward to music listened to lit
You'd worry less about what they thought if you knew how little they did
On to better things, they fucking love all of the guessing
Someone just met your ex thinking they met someone special
I was gonna call you back, I swear
Just as soon as I felt up to it
The phone is ringing, the phone is ringing, can't use it 'til it stops
I moan and listen, the tone emits
The only man in black, hi-viz jackets in the cab
Brexit breakfast, Day-Glo stars, I am baggin' and dashin'
Whoever's with my ex needs to do better, she's still texting me at two 'til ten
Weird liquor tastes weirdly better when your life is fucked up
I was gonna call you back, I swear
Just as soon as I felt up to it
You call and call my phone thinking I'm doing nothing better
I'm just waiting for it to stop so I can use it again
Love isn't a riddle, love isn't made to be hard
You know I'd give you my kidney, just don't ever take my charger
So dance like no one is awkward to music listened to lit
You'd worry less about what they thought if you knew how little they did
You call and call my phone thinking I'm doing nothing better
I'm just waiting for it to stop so I can use it again
I was gonna call you back, I swear
Just as soon as I felt up to it
It just hasn't happened yet
And I'm still gonna call you back one day
And you can tell me all the news
That you've been trying to, oh yeah
You call and call my phone thinking I'm doing nothing better
I'm just waiting for it to stop so I can use it again
You call and call my phone (I was gonna call you back)
Thinking I'm doing nothing better (I swear)
I'm just waiting for it to stop so I can use it again
