lyrics

[threeplusfire]

Grandfather watches
The grandfather clock
And the phone hasn't rang for so long
And the time flies by
Like a vulture in the sky
Suddenly he breaks into song

And I'm waiting by the phone
waiting for you to call me up
And tell me I'm not alone
I want somebody to shove
I need somebody to shove
I want somebody to shove me

Hello speak up
Is there somebody there
These hangups are getting me down
In a world frozen over
With over exposure
Let's talk it over
Let's go out and paint the town

And I'm waiting by the phone
Waiting for you to call me up
And tell me I'm not alone
Cause I want somebody to shove
I need somebody to shove
I want somebody to shove me

that one single three minute song, when I first heard it back in 1992, pretty well turned my life completely upside down, in the best way imaginable...

holy crap it's been a long time.
"grave dancer's union" used to KILL me, back when. i should perhaps try to find that CD somewhere (i only ever had it on tape).

Sounds about right for how I feel right now, too.
