Disconnected Line

The number you have reached is not in service at this time

And there is no new number

Please be sure you have checked the telephone directory

For the right number and are dialing correctly

This is a recording

Here we go again, got another disconnected line

I don't understand why this seems to happen all the time

Over and over, missing the dates I might have had

All I can hope is that you've phoned or I'm dead

This is the thing that makes me mad

Searching everywhere in the places where you used to go

Using up the time, ending up with nothing much to show

Time and again, trouble and bad luck hits on me

Maybe you slipped up with the phone company

Or maybe you don't remember me

Don't even know some address to send a letter to

Lying disconnected, nothing in the world that I can do

Over and over, missing the girls I might have had

All I can hope is that you've phoned or I'm dead

This is the thing that makes me mad

The number you have reached is not in service at this time

And there is no new number

Please be sure you have checked the telephone directory

For the right number and are dialing correctly
