lyrics

Little drops of rain, little drops of oil, looking down, walking by, I almost fell. Looking down, walking by I missed a fine tomato. Locked in a phone booth, locked away from me. Locked in a phonebooth, waiting for her man.

But I don't mean, I don't mean to fall that far below your standards, ain't looking good just trying to make a call. Thought I'd be in a fucking magazine, playing in a pile of leaves with the girl with the turtleneck sweater.

Forty days of dust falling on my hands, ran away, sweating tears, I couldn't catch her heel. She's a target for a thousand watts of stars, she ran away, all those years I couldn't catch her heel.

I don't mean to fall that far below your standards, ain't looking good just trying to make a call. Thought I'd be in a fucking magazine, playing in a pile of leaves with the girl with the turtleneck sweater.
