Lyrics:

5 7 0 5..but there's no reply
5 7 0 5

Got myself just one more dime
But will the operator hold the line
When my ears keeps telling me there's no reply (no reply)
Pick up the telephone
I go crazy when there's no one home
I feel cheated and small when my number's on the wall of your room
Call me soon (Hey operator)

Chorus:
5 7 0 5
But theres no reply
I keep calling
5 7 0 5
Why do you keep me hanging on the line

I can't believe that there's no one there
Is this a private number love affair
With your phonebook lover still waiting on the wire (hot wire)
I see the light shine behind your door
I heard the party on the second floor
But you only pretend that you've been visiting friends from abroad
Tell me more (Hey operator)

Chorus

Mysterious feeling
I can't believe what she got me in
But to late now
It's all over town

5 7 0 5
But there's no reply
5 7 0 5
Can you hold the line x2
