Ansaphone

Oh I know I don’t own you / but I don’t even know if I should phone you /
Someone sending
me letters / saying you’ve been going with other fellers / And they / bored you
/ But I /
don’t wanna cry / or talk for hours / to a machine / on the end / of a telephone line / Oh it just kills me / when all you’ve got to do is call / Oh do it any time /
'cause there’s
never no-one home / never no-one home / Leave your message on the ansaphone /
I’m not
trying to be clever / but at least we’re not still living together / All those
calls in the evening / if I answered they’d hang up without speaking / And they / bored
you / But I there’s never no-one home / never no-one home / Leave your message on the
ansaphone /
/ 'Hello, its me. I just wanted to call and say it doesn’t matter what you
get up to. I just want you to stay in touch. That’s all.'/ Are you really not at home? / Or are you there but not alone? / Screening calls / you don’t want to receive /
meaning calls / calls that come from me / Oh I / need to see you / It’s not
enough for me just to hear you / You said you’d be here by ten thirty / but you want to stay
out and be dirty / Oh it just kills me / when all you’ve got to do is call / Oh do it any
time /
'cause there’s never no-one home / never no-one home / Leave your message on the
ansaphone.
