(verse 1)
Well back in 1876 an ol' boy named Bell,
Invented a contraption that we know so well,
By the 1950's they're in everybody's home,
As a crazy little thing they call the telephone,
Now there's one on every corner, in the back of every bar,
You can get one in your briefcase, on a plane or in your car,
So tell me why (why) haven't I (haven't I) heard from you,
