Morning this morning the curtains are shut
I'll ring you in the morning but the phone's been cut

Can you hear me (can you hear me?)
I've been calling all day (can you hear me?)
Can you hear me (can you hear me?)
(can you hear me?)

The radio reporter said the line's all dead
He told me that I oughta write a letter instead

Can you hear me (can you hear me?)
I've been calling all day (can you hear me?)
Can you hear me (can you hear me?)
(can you hear me?)

I'd wish they'd fix the wires cause my baby don't know
That I'm leaving in the morning and I'm ready to go

Can you hear me
Can you hear me at all
Gotta get the operator make a telephone call

And if I write a letter it won't get there on time
I'll only reach you baby on the telephone line

Can you hear me (can you hear me?)
I've been calling all day (can you hear me?)
Can you hear me (can you hear me?)
(can you hear me?)

My car's all ready and my bags are all packed
I'm late already and I won't be back

Can you hear me (can you hear me?)
I've been calling you all day (can you hear me?)
Can you hear me (can you hear me?)
(can you hear me?)

I'd wish they'd fix the wires cause my baby don't know
That I'm leaving in the morning and I'm ready to go

Can you hear me
Can you hear me at all
Gotta get the operator make a telephone call

(Recorded telephone snippets and some rings)
(The "Hello?" is a recording of Eric Radcliffe's Mum)

I'd wish they'd fix the wires cause my baby don't know
That I'm leaving in the morning and I'm ready to go

Can you hear me
Can you hear me at all
Gotta get the operator make a telephone call
