Sittin' in my bedroom late last night Got into bed and turned out the light Decided to call my baby on the telephone All I got was an engaged tone It's off the hook It's off the hook It's off the hook It's off the hook It's off the hook Talkin' so long she upset my mind Why is she talkin' such a long time? Maybe she's sleeping, maybe she's ill Phone's disconnected, unpaid bill It's off the hook It's off the hook It's off the hook It's off the hook It's off the hook Don't wanna see her, afraid of what I'd find Tired of letting her upset me all the time Back into bed started reading my books Take my phone right off of the hook It's off the hook It's off the hook It's off the hook It's off the hook It's off the hook It's off the hook
