(Music & Lyrics: Dave Pirner) Grandfather watches the grandfather clock And the phone hasn't rang for so long And the time flys by, like a vulture in the sky Suddenly he breaks into song I'm waiting by the phone Waiting for you to call me up and tell me I'm not alone I'm waiting by the phone Waiting for you to call me up and tell me I'm not alone Hello, speak up, is there somebody there? These hang ups are getting me down In a world frozen over with over exposure Let's talk it over, let's go out and paint the town Cause I'm waiting by the phone Waiting for you to call me up and tell me I'm not alone Cause I want somebody to shove I need somebody to shove I want somebody to shove me You're a dream for insomniacs, prize in the Cracker Jack All the difference in the world is just a call away And I'm waiting by the phone Waiting for you to call me up and tell me I'm not alone Yes I'm waiting by the phone I'm waiting for you to call me, call me and tell me I'm, tell me I'm not alone Cause I want somebody to shove I need somebody shove I want somebody to shove me Yes I want somebody to shove I need somebody shove I want somebody to shove me
