TELEPHONE BILLS
Telephone Line (Electric Light Orchestra)

Hello? Where are you? Have we've been cut off?
Now I'm very, very, very, very, very pissed
That's what I yelled, I'd like to call you back
If I paid up my telephone, yea, yea, yea
What? Final notice? I've already paid
Don't you remember I sent a check last month?
Fo-or, half the, full amount, that check must have bounced
Now I lost my deposit

CHORUS:
Too much, someone calls too much, to France and Amsterdam
Collect, long distance, and I have no savings plan
I look at the numbers called (I'm sure I don't know someone from Beirut)
And I am appalled (what the hell is 1-800-Lick My Boots?)
Oh, no, telephone bills, these rates can kill, I'm not paying for it
Oh, no, telephone bills, gives me the chills, I just can't afford it

O.K., so they're not listening, why won't they just let it slide
Until next week, next month, next year
Oh, ooo, I'll sit and pout, from the darkness of my house
Because my hydro's not paid too… yea, yea, yea
(Chorus)
