When Sly Calls (don`t Touch That Phone) lyrics

Artist  : Michael Franks 
Song : When Sly Calls (don`t Touch That Phone)
 
When Sly calls
The profit speaks
When
Sly calls
The secret leaks
The sky
falls
The dice are tossed
The war is
won
The battle's lost
When Sly calls
It's thirteen takes
When Sly calls
The
summer breaks
The sky falls
The rain
begins
And on the box some Leon spins
To insulate me from the icy aftershock I feel
each time
That Sly calls
(Don't touch
the phone)
I am not here
I'm making my
escape
The me you hear
Is magnetized on
tape
I'm flying south
For snorkeling and
sleep
(à Côte d'Azur)
Just leave your
message when you hear the
(Don't you dare
touch that phone)
When you hear the
(Don't you dare touch that phone)
When you
hear the
(Don't you dare touch that phone)
When you hear the beep
When Sly calls
It's tit for tat
When Sly calls
It's
rat eat rat
The sky falls
The signal
fades
I lock the door and shut the shades
And contemplate the crystal blue familiar funk
I'm plunged into
When Sly calls
