Deadbolt standing in your overcoat
I wish I had ten thousand volts
I'd give you a major jolt

Cause everytime I phone you
You're deep in catatonia
Baby I'm a greasy pig tryin' to work your screwloose

Deadbeat frozen there in your feet
I wish I had a piece of heat
Lord you know I'd make you leap

Cause everytime I phone you
You're deep in catatonia
Baby I'm a greasy pig tryin' to work your screwloose

When you worked at that station on the corner
I never took you for a gonner
When you went to finishin' school it finished you

If I had a pack of dangerous firecrackers
You know where I'd stick them

Cause everytime I phone you
You're deep in catatonia
Baby I'm a greasy pig tryin' to work your screwloose

Work on it, work on it, work on it, work on it, work on it
