This here is the place

where I'll be staying
There isn't a number
you can call the

pay phone
let it ring a long.
long, long, long time
If I don't pick up.

hang up, call back.
let it ring some more
Oh oh oh oh oh oh

oh woah
If I don't pick up
pick up the

Sidewinder sleeps.
sleeps, sleeps in a coil
Call me when you try
to wake her up

Call me when you try
to wake her up
There are scratches
all around the coin slot
Like a heartbeat, baby

trying to wake up
But this machine

can only
swallow money
You can't lay a patch
by computer design

it's just a lot of
stupid, stupid signs
So oh oh oh oh oh

ohoh
So... tell her that
he can kiss my ass

then laugh and say
that you were
only kidding
That way she'll know

that it's really, really,
really. really me, me
Call me when you try
to wake her up

Call me when you try
to wake her up
Baby instant soup
doesn't really grab me
today I need something
more suh-suh-suh-
substantial
A can of beans

or blackeyed peas
some nescafe and ice
A candy bar
a falling star

or a reading by
Doctor Seuss
Call me when you try
to wake her up

Call me when you try
to wake her up
Call me when you try
to wake her up

Call me when you try
to wake her up
The cat in the hat

came back
Wrecked a lot of havoc
on the way

always had a smile
and a reason to pretend
But their world

has flat backgrounds
and little
Need to sleep
but to dream

the Sidewinder
sleeps on his back
Call me when you try
to wake her up

Call me when you try
to wake her up
I can always sleep
standing up

Call me when you try
to wake her up
I can always sleep
standing up

Call me when you try
to wake her up
We've got to moogie,

moogie. move
