"pickuppickuppickuppickup"

Don't pick up, you're home alone
Caller ID reads 'unknown'
Pretend your problem's gonna go away

Connection crashes, not your fault
You'd blame the gun for armed assault
But argue when your damage doesn't stay

Child bride, broken body, ruin all your fun
Said I'd call you back, you said that you'd call 911
Freezer burn, fake your passion, please pick up the phone
Gonna lose my head if all I hear's the dial tone

You can call me any-anytime
I got your number from the yellow pages
I'll love ya from the landline
'Cause acceptance comes in phases

Any any any any anytime
Any any any any anytime

Cut the convo, know your rights
Shouting over red and blue headlights
Crying to the cops like they're your mom

My friends all think you're immature
Spit my name like it's your cure
I only lit the fuse, you built the bomb

Child bride, broken body, ruined all your fun
Said I'd call you back, you swore that you'd call 911
Freezer burn, fake your passion, just pick up the phone
Gonna lose my head if all I hear's the dial tone

You can call me any-anytime
I got your number from the yellow pages
I'll love ya from the landline
'Cause acceptance comes in phases

Any any any any anytime
Any any any any anytime

You got poker chips for family
You sold away your sin
But the house is always rigged
It's not a game if I can't win

Revel in remorse
You swear you're sorry, I am too
Cry your heart out baby 'cause
All I'm feeling is blue

You can call me any-anytime
I got your number from the yellow pages
I'll love ya from the landline
'Cause acceptance comes in phases
