Monday morning and things go wrong
Without you oh , it's been so long
I dial your number, the crazy number
I wanna talk to you, I ain't come through

I'm on the road, but I need you here
So the room blows me to dispair
I'm on the telephone but something's going wrong
I wanna talk to you, I ain't come through

Oh, what a disaster!
Don't go away!
I don't wanna lose you this way

Don't leave me waiting on the telephone

All I want is a little conversation
So you will take away my frustration
I ask the operator and he says: "Try it later"
I'm on the telephone, and somethings going wrong

The receiver pressed against my ear
But there ain't nothing to hear
I'm dialing numbers, so many numbers
I'm on the telephone, and something's going wrong

I want to smash the phone
I wanna scream, it's like I am in a bad dream

Hell operator - can you get me 129-7129?
"This line is engaged"
Oh, I'm in a hurry, please connect me
"I'm sorry caller - the line is still engaged"
Oh, please, you must help me. I have to talk to my boyfriend
"The line is occupied. Please ring afterwards."
Oh please, don't cut me off...
"The line is engaged"
Oh, I really must speak to him. Please try it one more time
"The line is engaged... The line is engaged...."
