Hot Numbers on the Telephone

Lyrics

Hot numbers on the telephone I can feel the heat that you're bringing When the phone starts ringing, baby Hot numbers on the telephone I can feel the heat that you're bringing When the phone starts ringing Fifty percent of the dragon Fifty percent of the bee One hundred percent of the wagon A wagon that's built for three must include me Recap three times with a hoot Who got to call the shots? There was never a dispute Until the rotary dialed in the sole of the boot Baby, call me, we got some shit we could shoot I'm on your telephone, dialing off a romancer Circumventing the operator Double down on the dial tone I'm on your telephone And you're too shocked to answer Hot numbers on the telephone I can feel the heat that you're bringing When the phone starts ringing, baby Hot numbers on the telephone You spend the night alone 'Cause you're too shocked to answer You can't fathom the extent of the power Till you see it through your own eyes It's all about the placement of the tower When you're talking through fiber optic lines I don't suppose you believe in ghosts But how do you explain what's happening here? Sonic ripples when our glasses toast And what you fear the most appears out of view naring in silence You can hear a pin drop A dime in the coin return when goes pop The operator drinks your tears by the drop And then stops I was only trying to call on your telephone Breathing heavy in the house I'm on your telephone Posing as someone I'm not, baby Hot numbers on the telephone I'm in the dial tone You can hear me when I'm talking, talking Hot numbers on the telephone I can feel the heat that you're bringing When the phone starts ringing, baby Hot numbers on the telephone You spend the night alone 'Cause you're too shocked to answer Hot numbers Hot numbers Hot numbers on the telephone Hot numbers Hot numbers Hot numbers on the telephone
