I Do What the Telephone Tells Me to Do

Wake up, and have a cup

Turn on the t.v... read the paper

Cause I know someone's calling me up

Waitin' for the phone to ring

Get me up and do my thing

Cause I do what the telephone tells me to do

That's the truth dog

Just a waitin' on you

Cause I do what the telephone tells me to do

Hey fool maybe you do too

Everybody's got a telephone ringin'

Everybody got a telephone singin'

So whets new, whets swinging

Whets goin' on where your phones ringin'

I hear your friends are way too lazy

Is waking up at Wal-Mart making you crazy

If you looking for action

Pure satisfaction

Well I do what the telephone tells me to do

Here's my number call me up and I'll

Do it with you

Cause I do what the telephone tells me to do

Hey fool maybe you do too

Everybody's got a telephone ringin'

Everybody got a telephone singin'

Ya tell me yeah, ya tell me no

Always telling me where to go

Sitting' here and the phone starts to ring

Feelin' good the way it pulls my string

When I get tired of all the talk

Go outside and take a walk

Locked in a cell with old ma belle

Sometimes things just don't go so well

Cause I do what the telephone tells me to do

Hey fool maybe you do too

Everybody's got a telephone ringin'

Everybody got a telephone singin'
