Telephone

Shad
I've been called
A bad boyfriend and even worse ex
Told put God first and her next
If she's the only girl like Snow White or Smurfette
She's not, I am
Dating nobody "“ nobody's perfect
And there's no sure bets
Just courage and first steps
We don't talk "“ got hang-ups and one-word texts
Lessons learned on hurt and discipline
In repair "“ still need a lotta work like Michigan
State improves when my Pistons win
Or when I see my sis again
Missin' friends I call when I'm getting bent out of shape over
Wait (weight) "¦ fixed that
Fit but no six-pack cuz I won't do sit ups or give up Big Macs
With Shad you always get a mixed bag
Sadness and joy, wins and mishaps
Healed wounds and picked scabs
More ups and downs than a Six Flags
Music with a message I left after the click
Don't go"¦
Chorus (Lisa Lobsinger): I said, "˜don't you go'/ But you hate talkin' on the phone/ You're way too close to home (try your call again) x 2
She's so off the hook, but when I'm letting go of the telephone
She goes off the wall, like a hella old centerfold
Should've left the cell at home
We're breaking up
Can't hear what she's sayin'
But I get the tone
Nah'mean? Nah, I've never known
Say you mean well, then how come I'm left alone
When I need help
This female won't take my calls
It's like pool "“ and that's her cue to break my balls
The games we play replay each day
Phone tag, hide-and-seek with the PDA off
I'm on course like the PGA
Towards a deep sea cave
Where my treasure is kept
Buried like death in the depths where I keep me safe
I'm just like, "˜ay, we'll keep in touch'
Not close like Glen, just close enough
That the attachment's still there, just never opened up
(Chorus)
And the bill for my cell is high c-notes: Wynton Marsalis
Man, why Telus gotta be so selfish
Helpless "“ ran out of luck
Ran out of minutes on my Solo before I could finish (don't go)
Don't end this while I'm roaming on the road dolo
Woken up with a special ring like Frodo
I get the picture- don't upload the photo
I can see you both "“ pixels in my mind load in slow-mo
TLO on the mixer switch to phono
For grown folks BB pinnin' hopes bu the phone's broke
Disconnected"¦
Just a second"¦.
I'm cutting out
TLO cut the records
