Telephone (Pick Up The)

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
