Phone Book Lyrics
[00:00.08] Well, I'm so sorry that, that I blew your cover
[00:27.26] But it wasn't that hard when you jump from under one sheet to another
[00:33.45] With your celluloid hit-and-run agent
[00:37.14] Were you just thumbing through or intending on pain?
[00:44.94] But I'll bring you a phone book, tell you who delivers
[00:51.00] It's not the cold outside, the fires, or the quivers
[00:57.08] It's the static in your head that makes you feel numb
[01:02.64] Why curse the whole world for being dumb?
[01:11.99] For being dumb
[01:16.23]
[01:26.73] Well, I know your instincts tell you to run like hell out to mother
[01:33.18] But it isn't that hard when you're not
[01:36.21] The one still in love with the other
[01:39.36] With your boy wonder science fair station
[01:42.65] You can probably pray for some chemical salvation
[01:50.76] But I'll steal your mail so they cannot deliver
[01:56.42] These so sadly colored letters, you're so privileged to forgive her
[02:02.75] It's forgetting that matters if you can still feel
[02:08.63] Why buy or exhaust emotions when you can beg or steal?
[02:17.72] Beg or steal
[02:58.74]
[00:27.26] But it wasn't that hard when you jump from under one sheet to another
[00:33.45] With your celluloid hit-and-run agent
[00:37.14] Were you just thumbing through or intending on pain?
[00:44.94] But I'll bring you a phone book, tell you who delivers
[00:51.00] It's not the cold outside, the fires, or the quivers
[00:57.08] It's the static in your head that makes you feel numb
[01:02.64] Why curse the whole world for being dumb?
[01:11.99] For being dumb
[01:16.23]
[01:26.73] Well, I know your instincts tell you to run like hell out to mother
[01:33.18] But it isn't that hard when you're not
[01:36.21] The one still in love with the other
[01:39.36] With your boy wonder science fair station
[01:42.65] You can probably pray for some chemical salvation
[01:50.76] But I'll steal your mail so they cannot deliver
[01:56.42] These so sadly colored letters, you're so privileged to forgive her
[02:02.75] It's forgetting that matters if you can still feel
[02:08.63] Why buy or exhaust emotions when you can beg or steal?
[02:17.72] Beg or steal
[02:58.74]
