Operator, Operator Songtext
von Eddy Raven

Now I thought it over how it′s come to this
I must have lost all my common sense
Chasin' a dream runnin′ through my mind
So I called her up to say how I felt
Just before I could get it out
She was gone, the silence was on
She didn't hear a word, she just hung up the phone

Operator, operator, would you be so kind?
As to reconnect this number, I just spent my last dime
She's got my love on hold and my heart is on the line


Well, I was always just one step ahead
Just close enough to keep my fingers wet
I′ve been actin′ a fool and foolin' no one but myself

But now I′m ready to talk if you're willin′ to hear
Choice of words is my biggest fear
I'd say anything (yes, I would) just to change your mind
She′s got my love on hold and my heart is on the line

Operator, operator, would you be so kind?
As to reconnect this number, I just spent my last dime
She's got my love on hold and my heart is on the line

Operator, operator (ay look here, wait a minute)
Would you be so kind? (Uh-uh, you can't do that to me)
(What do you mean? Wait, I ain′t got no more money) as to reconnect this number
(Hold on, operator) I just spent my last dime (operator, hey)
She′s got my love on hold and my heart is on the line
