"The Telephone Always Rings" lyrics
"The Telephone Always Rings"
It must be wonderful to live like you do
To have respect from everyone that you know
To have surprises waiting outside your door
When you come home to answer your telephone
He who knocks is he that missed
The 'Don't Disturb' sign on the door
And he who called, is he that dropped
Invitations on the floor
Sitting down and switching on
The wooden box, the door is locked
Switching off the world outside
The party's over for the night
It must be wonderful to live like you do
To have respect from everyone that you know
To have surprises waiting outside your door
When you come home to answer your telephone
The telephone starts to ring, it rings
The 5-piece doorbell starts to chime
The liquid clock burst into song
It's out of tune, the timing's wrong
It must be wonderful to live like you do
To have respect from everyone that you know
To have surprises waiting outside your door
When you come home to answer your telephone
It must be wonderful to live like you do
To have respect from everyone that you know
To have surprises waiting outside your door
When you come home to answer your telephone
Lying down and soaking in
The bubble bath, the door is locked
Switching off the world outside
The party's over for the night
It must be wonderful to live like you do
To have respect from everyone that you know
To have surprises waiting outside your door
When you come home to answer your telephone
It must be wonderful to live like you do
To have respect from everyone that you know
To have surprises waiting outside your door
When you come home to answer your telephone
It must be wonderful to live like you do
To have respect from everyone that you know
To have surprises waiting outside your door
Monday, Tuesday, three days and more

He got an ice pick

Ian Dury - "Wake Up And Make Love With Me" I come awake
With a gift for womankind
You're still asleep
But the gift don't seem to mind
Rise on this occasion

Sliding down your body
Touching your behind
You look so...
Thomas Dolby - "Hyperactive!" Hmm
Tell me about your childhood
Oh!
At the tender age of three
I was hooked to a machine
Just to keep my mouth from spouting junk
Ha!

'Cause they chucked me out of...
Japan - "Adolescent Sex" Well, the sidewalk's trading love as subway lights grow brighter
We're just another hype, but the pressure's getting harder
Get on up, get on up
Get on up, take it much higher
Get on up, get on up...
