The Lyrics
Phones can drive you crazy.....
On the day I was home
The damn thing just wouldn't stop
It just rang every minute
I was ready to pop
Salesmen every time
And I got mad at the phone
Mad at the phone, Mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
I broke a dozen sets
In anger before
And I am not through, baby
I'll break a thousand more
I'm beginning to get a stutter
When I hear dial tone
Each solicitor makes me
Mad at the phone
Mad at the phone, Mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
M-m-m-m-m-m-m- mad at the phone
(Solo of busy signal, hanging up and more ringing)
No, don't want to wait on hold
No, don't want to buy the news
No, don't ask me for my vote
When you call me up, I lose
I don't want caller I.D.
Please leave me alone
Mad at the phone, Mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m- mad at the phone
And now I walk the streets
Guess it was all too much
Every moron I greet
Has ears glued to that crutch
I wanna tell you cell-head people
On my head's a metal cone
You must block out the P-rays
Put out by all the phones
Mad from the phone
Mad from the phone
M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-mwa-hah-hah-hah
The damn thing just wouldn't stop
It just rang every minute
I was ready to pop
Salesmen every time
And I got mad at the phone
Mad at the phone, Mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
I broke a dozen sets
In anger before
And I am not through, baby
I'll break a thousand more
I'm beginning to get a stutter
When I hear dial tone
Each solicitor makes me
Mad at the phone
Mad at the phone, Mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
M-m-m-m-m-m-m- mad at the phone
(Solo of busy signal, hanging up and more ringing)
No, don't want to wait on hold
No, don't want to buy the news
No, don't ask me for my vote
When you call me up, I lose
I don't want caller I.D.
Please leave me alone
Mad at the phone, Mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
M-m-m-m mad at the phone
M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m- mad at the phone
And now I walk the streets
Guess it was all too much
Every moron I greet
Has ears glued to that crutch
I wanna tell you cell-head people
On my head's a metal cone
You must block out the P-rays
Put out by all the phones
Mad from the phone
Mad from the phone
M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-mwa-hah-hah-hah

Block out the P(hone)-Rays, but don't block out the P(arody)-Rays. 5's
Good one, Rick!
A fine choreography in telephony. What's the phone number? What else, you know it will start with 555.
That's right, Guy. Rick, the phone number for this parody is 555-4U4U.
If you would like me to comment, press 1. If you would like constructive criticism, press 2. If you would like future parody ideas, press 3. If you think such phone-recording menus are annoying, many will join you in pressing 4. If you want my opinion of this parody, I press 5.
I hate telemarketers! 5's! Here's a clever trick: Learn a second language so you can speak it to them when they ask you questions. Then THEY will hang up on YOU.
love the clever twist...5s
