Lyrics
White Telephone To God
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.
Do we have to get older? We do.
Do we have to get older? We do.
So besides getting grey hair
Guess what showed up in the mail?
My very own white telephone
My very own white telephone to God
When the white telephone rings, it's him.
It's not happened to me yet, but it's happened to my friend.
Hearing from the other end...
We all have to get older. It's true
And then st. Peter said, "better older than dead"
So you're being one to change your diet.
Fresh bread, garlic, butter, toasted, dipped in the starter.
Some days don't you just need sticky toffee pudding plus
Extra caramel sauce for luck?
Roasted taters and gravy, pizza thin pepperoni.
I'll make a deal with you, hold the booze and not tiramisu.
(You think you get tiramisu)
Cheesecake, red velvet cupcakes
Some favor their dream burger.
Fish and chips with tartar sauce.
Fear will come a weight gain, love [?]
When the white telephone rings, it's him
It's not happened to me yet
But if I don't change my diet
Hearing from the end
We all have to get older, we do
But then st. Peter said "better older than dead"
"That's your warning from your white telephone"
My very own white telephone to God
