Pick Up The Phone歌詞

Pick Up The Phone (接起電話) - Lupe Fiasco
Uhh I just need a minute to replenish who I am
And who I am is so dependent on exactly where we stand
I stand in any pose anything but tippy toes
But don't want you to feel smaller always taller
Now I'm a cheerleader she a baller
The difference in height isn't alright I left my ego at the alter
Now every ring's a sting and everything I taught ya
Is coming back around to me just like revolvers
And every single click is just hammering it home
Who knew Russian roulette involved answering the phone
Until my signal dwindles or my channel is in roam
Or my cellphone dies or it's cancer in my dome
And dear nix the tone as I pull my f**king pain out
One of your short nodes might blow my f**kin' brains out
But you ain't even pick up
Talking to myself exactly what you sick of
Feeling kinda restless
Did you get my message
It's swirling around and so
No don't tell me that you care
When I know you're standing there
I left the story of my life on your answering machine
Hello can you hear me
Hello are you there
Hello would you pick up the phone
Hello can you hear me
Hello are you there
Hello would you pick up the f**kin' phone
We were like if a tree falls in the forest and
No one is around does it really make a sound
That's romantic and profound but now
We're like lumberjacks holding the axes that brung it down
So I'm now on your message talm 'bout remember
Silence in return that sound like 'timber
There's some that can't see the forest because they're liars
But I can't see the forest cause of the fire
And in our prehistorics the flowers was rooting for us
Brontosaurus ate the flowers t rex ate the brontosaurus
And then the t rex turned around and ate the florist
That's why I lost my ftd endorsements
But that's really not important
My sadness' a snitch my melancholy informant
Despair wears a wire my longing rapping a song
My worry is a rat my lonely tapping the phone
Feeling kinda restless
Did you get my message
It's swirling around and so
I wanna give you reasons
Tell you what I'm feeling
But none of these lines are secure
No don't tell me that you care
When I know you're standing there
I left the story of my life on your answering machine
My tears run off your shoes
Like waters from a goose
You try to wash off all the dirt
But your hands aren't getting clean
Hello can you hear me
Hello are you there
Hello would you pick up the phone
Hello can you hear me
Hello are you there
Hello would you pick up the f**kin' phone
The make believers on receivers as you sit back and observe
As the rubber curly cord just absorbs all my words
Will you collect us then connect us or neglect us on the whole
Into the wall then cross the wires on the telephone poles
Then bounces off the towers then up into the satellites
Then falls down back to earth to bring a broken heart back to life
Happens all the time lost an appetite and lack of sleep
If it's dead and flatten line I'll leave a message at the beep
Hello can you hear me
Hello are you there
Hello would you pick up the phone
Hello can you hear me
Hello are you there
Hello would you pick up the phone
Would you pick up the phone
Would you pick up the phone
Hello would you pick up the f**kin' phone
