"Ansaphone" lyrics

"Ansaphone"

Tried to call you up today, when I rang, there was no reply
Only got a strange voice sayin' 'call back in a while'
Wanna make a rendezvous cos I'd fallen for you so
Askin' you to 'mangez-vous' at a place that I know
Said I'd call you sometime in about a week or so
And when I got home that night I found a note was on a door

It said...
Come back to any place, gonna make have some fun tonight
There's gonna be a party here and it's gonna be all right
Gonna take it easy so I want you want to know
Gonna have a good time so I hope that you can show
I thought I didn't see right cos I was standing in the rain
So I tried to call you up and got that strange voice again

It said...
There ain't nobody here, they've all gone 'up for the day'
They won't be back right now so they've asked me to say
If you leave your number now, they'll
Call you when they're home
Treat me like a friend, speak loud and clear
I'm your ansaphone

Put yourself in my place, didn't know which way to go
Had the message in my hand and the voice, that's sayin' no no no
I took it to mean one thing, that the party was just me
I decided to get over there fast, didn't want to wait and see
But I couldn't quite remember the address that was on your door
So I had to call you up again and got the ansaphone once more

It said...
