Picking Tabs

You said, said you were going away
I thought maybe I could make you stay
I'm not so strong, I'm running to the phone
I got my finger in the dial and the words stuck in my throat, just sayin'

Pick up the telephone
Pick it up 'cause I know you're home
Pick up the telephone
And tell me that you love me

You are the biggest part of my world
It hurts to see you with another girl
I should have known from the very start
Now I'm listed under 'Fool' for you, you got a tollfree number to my heart

Pick up the telephone
Pick it up 'cause I know you're home
Pick up the telephone
And tell me that you love me

Operator, I'm feeling blue
I'm trying all day and I can't get through
Operator, interrupt the line
I've got to talk to my baby this time

(Dial 8-3-7-9-7-2-3!)
Dial 'Very sad' 'cause it stands for me
(Dial 8-3-7-9-7-2-3!)
Dial 'Very sad' 'cause it stands for me

You said, said you were going away
I thought maybe I could make you stay
I'm not so strong, I'm running to the phone
I got my finger in the dial and the words stuck in my throat, just sayin'

Pick up the telephone
Pick it up 'cause I know you're home
Pick up the telephone
And tell me that you love me

Pick up the telephone
Pick it up 'cause I know you're home
Pick up the telephone
And tell me that you love me

Pick up the telephone
Pick it up 'cause I know you're home
Pick up the telephone
And tell me that you love me

Pick up the telephone
Pick it up 'cause I know you're home
Pick up the telephone
And tell me that you love me
