Lyrics

I don't wanna kiss you, I don't wanna touch

I don't wanna see you 'cause I don't miss you that much

I'm not a telephone junkie

I told you that we were just good friends

But when I hold you like I hold that Bakelite in my hands

There's no action (no, no, no, there's no action)

There's no action (no, no, no, there's no action)

There's no action (no, no, no, there's no action)

Every time I phone you, I just wanna put you down

He's got the keys to the car

They are the keys to the kingdom

He's got everything you need

It's a shame that he didn't bring them

I'm not a telephone junkie

If I'm inserting my coin, I'm doing just fine

Then the things in my head start hurting my mind

And I think about the way things used to be

Knowing you're with him is driving me crazy

Sometimes, I phone you when I know you're not lonely

But I always disconnect it in time

There's no action (no, no, no, there's no action)

There's no action (no, no, no, there's no action)

There's no action (no, no, no, there's no action)

Every time I phone you, I just wanna put you

Every time I phone you, I just wanna put you

Every time I phone you, I just wanna put you down

There's no action (no, no, no, there's no action)

There's no action (no, no, no, there's no action)

There's no action (no, no, no, there's no action)

Every time I phone you, I just wanna put you down
