Phone Calls to Nowhere

from Roger White by Jon Hughes

/

lyrics

Evenings in the garden.
Watch me grapple the mendicant bull by the horn.
And all those 40 dollar dinners,
Now you've got me wondering what they were all for.

Cause every time the movie is over,
Every time I touch you you're turning away.
Make another phone call to nowhere.
Hear you talking, I know you've got nothing to say.

You're dialling Arizona–
Some acquaintance that you haven't talked to in years.
I'd get a 40 dollar lover
But that wouldn't resolve what is happening here.

Cause every time the movie is ending,
Every time I touch you you're turning away.
Make another phone call to nowhere.
Hear you talking I know you've got nothing to say.
