Artist: Lieke Album: Attacks When Provoked (2002) Title: Everybody's On The Phone
Lyrics Everybody's On The PhoneImpersonable, impossible
Talk, talk, talk away the time
You are addicted
So afflicted
Fiber optic junkie line
How can I reach you
When you're so obviously preoccupied
How can I get through
You're so invisible
There on the other side
Everybody's on the phone
The lights are on
Nobody's home
And I'm just standing here
Feeling queer and so alone
Everybody's on the phone
You're breaking up
I'm fading out
Hang, hang, hang up
Cut the cord
I'm disconnected
I'm dissected
It hurts
But what's worse
I'm bored
How can I reach you
When you're so seriously out of touch
How can I get to you
When my line is down
and you won't pick me up
Chorus:
Everybody's on the phone
The lights are on
Nobody's home
And I'm just standing here
Feeling queer and so alone
Everybody's on the phone
Everybody's on the phone
The lights are on
I'm on my own
And both my hands are tied
Undeniably alone
Everybody's on the phone
How can I reach you
When you're so obviously preoccupied
I can not get through
I can not get through
Chorus |
