I’ll Call You

Lyrics

I've got a nagging question 'Bout a turn of phrase That is often said under direct gaze I know it's just plain English But I don't have a clue What in the world do they mean When they say, "I'll call you"? Crack the secret code Learn the hand signs Don't believe what you're told Try to read between the lines Walk away and wonder Will you ever hear the truth Baby, what in the world do they mean (What, what in the world) What in the world do they mean (What, what in the world) What in the world do thеy mean When they say, "I'll call you"? Show mе an honest soul Who can make a clean break Who will say what they mean And mean what they say Who's not into idle talking, baby Without following through And make some sense Of that worn-out line, "I'll call you" Crack the secret code Learn the hand signs Don't believe what you're told Try to read between the lines Walk, wonder, never hear the truth Baby, what in the world do they mean (What, what in the world) What in the world do they mean (What, what in the world) What in the world do they mean When they say, "I'll call you"? I don't know, I wonder, darlin' Does it mean "Have a nice day?" Is it merely a good intention? Have they run out of things to say? Is it a civilized rejection I gotta, gotta crack the secret code Learn the hand signs Don't believe what you're told Try to read between the lines I walk, I wonder, I never hear the truth Baby, what in the world do they mean (What, what in the world) What in the world do they mean (What, what in the world) What in the world do they mean When they say, "I'll call you"? Talk to me, baby (What, what in the world) Tell it like it is, baby (What, what in the world) What in the world do they mean When they say, "I'll call you"? Yeah, baby, I'll call you I... can't... wait I'll call you What in the world I'll call you What in the world
