I got a telephone, but it never rings
I’m just making calls to memories
oh-oh
on my better days I know
the last years have cost me dearly
smoking cigarettes, about a pack a day
waiting for my lover, to come back to me
oh-oh
in my checkered dress I know
it’s been a long time since 1970
Pretty baby
the kitchen light is on
and I’m dancing to our favorite song
I’ve been waiting, and I hope there’s nothing wrong now
Don’t know where I am, Or who put me here
But by a trick of light, I’m in my Oldsmobile
oh-oh
you see my best days are the worst days
‘cause I’m alive there in 1970
Pretty baby
they got the TVs on
and I’m watching reruns all night long
and I’m still waiting
but I fear there’s something wrong now
They took my telephone, but I still hear it ring
I’m taking calls from infinity
oh-oh
I know
it’s just static but I’m listening
