Telephone Songtext
von Shutups

When you′re bored you keep a diary, but you're mostly concerned with anarchy
You′d disagree with anybody's father over dinner
And I could count the ways that you hate this place, but
Time would be better spent in another way
Outdone by a younger age' you′re working at the bank making minimum wage
Tryna find love with a face you can fall asleep to every night

And they′ve walked you home
Said goodnight and you closed the door
Cry 'till it′s alright

It's who you are when they′re gone
They remind you you're alone
It′s who you are when they're gone
Tell 'em off on your telephone


Somedays, girl, you′re winning, focused and committed
Too tall for the ceiling, run away′ run away' run away, run away
Tell ′em what your mom said, they'll only love you in bed
Just because he opened the door doesn′t make him a saint
And you could talk to the boys that are still up late
But time would be better spent in another way

It's who you are when they′re gone
They remind you you're alone
It's who you are when they′re gone
Tell ′em off on your telephone

Sleep tight, hold onto your dream for the night

It's who you are when they′re gone
They remind you you're alone
It′s who you are when they're gone
Tell ′em off on your telephone

Summer wipe me away, summer wipe me away
Till I'm just sunburnt with nothing to say
Watch you going, I can't believe it ever got this close to love
I′ve been dreaming of it
