Answering Machine

Try to breathe some life into a letter Losing hope, never gonna be together My courage is at its peak You know what I mean How do you say you're okay To an answering machine? How do you say goodnight To an answering machine? Big time's got its losers Small town's got its vices A handful of friends One needs a match, one needs some ice Call-waiting phone in another time zone How do you say I miss you To an answering machine? How do say good night To an answering machine? (If you'd like to make a call, please hang up and try again If you need help, dial the number...) I get enough of that Try to free a slave of ignorance Try and teach a whore about romance How do you say I miss you To an answering machine? How do you say good night to An answering machine? How do you say I'm lonely to An answering machine? The message is very plain Oh, I hate your answering machine I hate your answering machine I hate your answering machine... (If you'd like to make a call, please hang up and try again... If you need help...)
