Stevie Jackson - Telephone Song lyrics

Money and style and friends and work Music and s** and art and scene Boys and girls and d** and dreams That's you girl There's a lot to be said for a telephone line I could call you up, I could make it so fine But guilt and fear and jealousy That's me girl I carved her number on my wall It's not as if I need someone It's not as if I need someone It's funny, she didn't like my shirt So she told me, then she kissed me like I'd never seen a flirt I had not been courting, not for a while You'd have never have known it, not by her smile The coins, they're burning a hole in my pocket Thoughts of her, they're burning a hole in my head I could reach for the phone, I could flick it wide open I could scroll down some number, I could wish I was dead I carved her number on my wall It's not as if I need someone It's not as if I need someone If I treated her like she's number one It's not what I was thinking of It's not what I was thinking of With an action I could be interrupting her time If I pickup the phone and get her on the line Is she making some coffee, washing her dishes Playing her records, dreaming her wishes Now I'm running with my group, I'm feeling alright Being chased by the rain like "A Hard Day's Night" I pa** by the ‘phone I wonder if she's home She's so cool, gotta have her, think I'll leave her alone I carved her number on my wall It's not as if I need someone It's not as if I need someone If I treated her like she's number one It's not what I was thinking of It's not what I was thinking of It's not what I was thinking of It's not what I was thinking of
