Francis and the Lights
Tap the Phone (Live at Joe’s Pub)
[Verse 1]
Hey
Should have told you sooner
I think you're great
But I'd rather be alone here
And you
You could do much better
You get the message
But wish it came through a little clearer
[Chorus]
So I tap the phone
Took a taxi home
And I wrote a song for the radio
Now I could hear you
Don't have to be near you
And you could hear me on the radio
[Verse 2]
Hey
What a waste of time
I like your outfit, but I'd rather be on mine
And you, you could do much better
You like the music
You like the music but wish the songs could last forever
Now it's, its' late
Haven't we been through this?
I think you're great
But I just can't do this
[Chorus]
But I can tap the phone
Take a taxi home
Write a song for the radio
Now I could hear you
Don't have to be near you
And you could hear me on the radio
Every hour
I could tap the phone
Take a taxi home
Write a song for the radio
Now I can hear you
I don't have to be near you
You can hear me on the radio
Whenever you want to
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ayy
Ayy, ayy
The time's, time's up
