Lyrics

Hello Operator

Hello operator Can you give me number nine? Can i see you later? Will you give me back my dime? Turn the oscillator Twist it with a dollar bill Mail man bring the paper Leave it on my windowsill Find a canary A bird to bring my message home Carry my obituary My coffin doesnt have a phone How you gonna get the money? Send papers to an empty home? How you gonna get the money? Nobody to answer the phone
