Payphone Man

[Verse 1] I read about Papuan rebels in the in-flight magazine Made me think about Connolly, made me think about the guillotine I thought I saw Margaret Thatcher clawing up the wing of the plane I thought I saw cluster bombs falling in the fields like rain I dreamt I saw Pol Pot perched on a pyramid made of bones Before they flick back to the footy and the weather and the Dow Jones I think about Alan Vega more than I think about suicide I think about La Pieta, weeping tears that'll never dry When thеy talk about hypersonic missiles turning cities into ash Wеll everybody wants to buy the bag, nobody wants to front the cash [Pre-Chorus] I'm a payphone man and I'm in your street Well I'm all filled up with junk now and I'm obsolete [Chorus] And I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you But it's not enough And you're miserable, you're lonely You long for me holding your hand Well that's not love Now that's not love Now that's not love [Verse 2] Well you had a couple drinks last night so you better have a couple today You better have a couple at the airport to keep a couple things at bay Well everybody in the world is here and they all have a plane to catch Well everybody wants to burn the barn, nobody wants to strike the match [Pre-Chorus] I'm a payphone man and I'm stuck on hold Well I been waiting on your signal but your line's so cold [Chorus] And I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you But it's not enough And you're miserable, you're lonely You long for me holding your hand Well that's not love (love) Now that's not love (love) Now that's not love (love) Well that's not love (love) [Bridge] Everybody in the world is here Everybody in the world is here Everybody in the world is here [Verse 3] Everybody in the world is here and they all have the same disease Everybody in the world is here singing psalms of the centuries Everybody in the world is here and they all have the same disease Everybody in the world is here, cutting the eyes out of memories Well everybody in the world is here and they're waiting on the gates to close Well everybody in the world is here and the world is a big sick rose [Outro] Now everybody in the world is here Now everybody in the world is here Now everybody in the world is here (Everybody in the world is here)
