Operator, operator gets low and she can't find the number
Crying on the telephone
It's hard, it's harder when she knows
Newscasters don't watch the news like operators don't get numbers

I'm a castle, I'm a castle in the sand
And you were the queen until the tide came in
All summer long, operator's on the telephone
Puppets don't move unless there are strings
Cars and trains don't work without engines

Operator, operator gets low
Operator, operator gets low
