Operator

[Verse 1]
Hello friend, I confess
A tragic tale to get off my chest
She left for good, with no farewell
Lonely days talking to myself

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Tell me who could I call for a thrill?
Tell me where can I've had my fill
Of this lonely old house on the hill?

[Chorus 1]
Operator, I need a favour
Could you take some time, I'm in need of a connection in the worst way
So don't say goodbye
(Don't say goodbye)

[Verse 2]
Tried my hand, computer date
Took my troubles to cyberspace
I dropped the signal, I dropped the ball
Now I'm all dressed up with no girl to call

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Tеll me what would you do in my shoes?
Surely I'm not your first with thе boyfriend blues

[Chorus 2]
Operator, I need a favour
Could you take some time, I'm in need of a connection in the worst way, OK?
Operator, perfect stranger, could you put me through to somebody I could count on, please don't hang up, just stay on the line

[Bridge]
I've lost every [?]
In this connected suicide hotline
I lost Ricky's number twice
Even stood up by Jenny
At 8675309

[Chorus 3]
Can't you take some time
I'm in need of a connection
(Please take some time)
Did I cross the line when I asked for conversation?
Don't say good day
(I crossed the line)

[Coda]
Operator, I need a favour
Operator, perfect stranger
Operator, I need a favour
(Operator, I need a favour)
Operator, perfect stranger
(Operator, prefect)
Operator, I need a favour
(Operator, I need a favour)
Operator, perfect stranger
(Operator, prefect)
