Emergency

I never thought there'd come a time

When someone else would tap my line

On hold my woman's love I have

Expecting to still be mine, yeah

Time comes around

I'm knowing I should be there

Cause when I call her

A line that's always been clear

Is busy at the strangest hours

Operator got to have your help

This is an emergency

Please interrupt the line

He's trying to beat my time

Emergency

That's what I'm making, ooh

Tell her love is on the phone

I know I left her all alone

But this time I got my signals straight

When love calls she won't have to wait

Try the line one more time

This woman is much too rare for me to give her up

Knowing that love's still here

Cause all at once it came to me

Now operator got to help me please

This is an emergency

Please won't you put me through

Or she'll have somebody new
