Telephone Calls

Telephone calls
Apartment A is at it again
Paper thin walls
she’s been sleeping around with other men
and other women
but right about now her head is swimming
he’s breakin’up the furniture
screamin’and a yellin'
about to beat the hell outta her
Television ringin’in my ear
I’ve been thinkin'
Haven’t had a break in 20 years
I’ve been drinkin'
Telephone calls
insanity is just another ring away
I get the paper
take a look at it every single day
Another episode
another life flushed down the camode (spelling?)
We’re all carrying such a heavy load
I get no slack
it’s breakin’my back
Television ringin’in my ear, I’ve been drinkin'
Haven’t had a break in 20 years
I’ve been thinkin’get me out of here.
'til the coast is clear
Television ringin’in my ear, I’ve been thinkin'
Haven’t had a break in 20 years
I keep drinkin’Television ringin’in my ear,
I keep drinkin’liquor, wine, and beer
I’ve been thinkin'
get me out of here
I’ve been thinkin'.
