Answering Machine

[Verse 1]
Answering machine, your job is so boring
Answering machine, your life is so lonely
You've been spending all your time
Listening to a guy saying, “it’s okay, it’s alright”

[Verse 2]
Answering machine, tell me a story
Answering machine, stay awake until the morning
I must confess, that I lie out of cowardice and pride
Hello, hello, goodbye

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
You didn't pick up
You didn't pick up, so I just talked to the machine
And it listened
I’m sure it listened, but it didn’t say anything

[Verse 4]
Answering machine, it’s all for a show
Answering machine, I have to leave
I’ve been on hold for way too long
And they keep playing that same stupid song
And when I hang up it still goes on and on and on
