Place this call it's not for fun

Long-distance operator

Please place this call you know it's not for fun

I gotta get a message to my baby

You know she's not just anyone

There are thousands in the phone booth

Thousands at the gate

There are thousands in the phone booth

Thousands at the gate

Everybody wants to make a long-distance call

But you know they're just gonna have to wait

Everybody wants to be my friend

But nobody wants to get higher

Eveybody wants to be my friend

But nobody wants to get higher

Long-distance operator

I believe I'm stranglin' on this telephone wire
