(Jack Lee)  (Answer the bloody phone)  I'm in the phonebooth, it's the one across the hall  If you don't answer I'll just ring it off the wall  I know she's there, but I just had to call  Don't leave me hangin' on the telephone  Don't leave me hangin' on the telephone  I heard your mama, "Now she's goin' out the door  I think she's gone to work, or just gone to the store"  All the things you said I told you to ignore  Oh, why can't we talk again, oh, why can't we talk again  Oh, why can't we talk again  Don't leave me hangin' on the telephone  Don't leave me hangin' on the telephone  It's good to hear your voice, I know it's been so long  If I don't get your call then everything goes wrong  I wanna tell you something you knew all along  Don't leave me hangin' on the telephone  (Solo)  I am the winner of this pointless conversation  Your voice [and cry so makes is me] a slick sensation  I like to talk when I can show you my affection  Oh, I can't control myself, oh, I can't control myself  Oh, I can't control myself  Don't leave me hangin' on the telephone  Get down here on your knees, oh, get down here on your knees  Oh, get down here on your knees, oh, get down here on your knees  Oh-oh-oh-oh on your knees  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
