[Verse 1]

[Chorus]
Dial tone
Got no quarters to atone
From my payphone, so alone
That's why I call on the
Operator

[Verse 2]
Age is a numbers game
That I lost 'cause you're throwing me away
Why judge a guy by his birthday
Is that you pagin' me
I know I'm lame but I'm only twenty-three
I'll get a phone when I need one

[Chorus]
Dial tone
Got no quarters to atone
From my payphone, so alone
That’s why I call on the
Operator

[Bridge]

[Verse 3]

On the greater highway that I see, I see
My whole life’s ahead of me

[Chorus]
Dial tone
Got no quarters to atone
From my payphone, so alone
That's why I call on the
Operator
