Your rating:
Paper and wire killed my brother and my sister too And if you don't watch out You know they're going to get you too And if I don't watch out You know they're going to get me too Telephone Telephone Telephone Telephone Well I strangled the cord Ripped it off of the phone And I saw the bone And I saw the twinkling lights It must have been rats [?? is this right? - any ideas?] 'Cause it sure was a drone It sure was a drag Paper and wire killed my brother and my sister too And if you don't watch out You know they're going to get you And if I don't watch out You know they're going to get me too Telephone Telephone Telephone And I strangled And I ripped the cord And I saw the bone And I heard these tweetin' things N twinkling lights N there was nobody home Where are all those nerve endings coming out of the bone? Telephone Telephone Well I ripped the cord right out of the phone And I saw the bone Dammed gleaming white bone Telephone Paper and wire killed my brother and my sister too And if you don't watch out You know they're going to get you And if I don't watch out You know they're going to get me too Telephone Telephone And I can't get away And I can't get away It's like a grey adder at the end of the hall It's like a plastic horned devil
