Hello
Tina, let me talk to your mommy
I can't right now, Daddy
She's under the dryer
Well, just tell her that
The flame of love's still burning
Mommy, Daddy just said he just caught on fire
Tina, just say I'll be home early
I better not, Daddy
She's too upset about the fire
No, the flames of love
Don't mean there's something burning
Mommy, I think Daddy just called you a liar
Tell her I just called to say I love her
You'd better wait a while, Daddy
I think she's really mad
Put down that phone
And go and get your Mommy right now
Daddy, I can't talk anymore
'Cause Mommy just walked right out the door
And I'm going with her
Bye, Daddy
I wonder if I did do something bad
