Phone in a Pool Songtext
von Ben Folds

Take it easy, take it slow
Oh
Get on with the show, oh
That′s what I know
I woke in a cold sweat last night
Seems what's been good for the music
Hasn′t always been so good for the life

I threw my phone in a pool
In New Orleans
Found the love of my life
Again y'all knows what I means
And I'll be back on the sofa in a puddle in a couple of weeks
Oh yeah

I can′t tell what you′re saying when you yell at the same time
You could be telling me the story of your life
Your life
Is my malfunction so surprising 'cause I always seem so stable and bright?
Ain′t it always the quiet types?


I threw my phone in a pool
In New Orleans
Found the love of my life
Again y'all knows what I means
And I′ll be back on the sofa in a puddle in a couple of weeks
Oh yeah
Well I won't
I won′t
I won't
I won't blame New Orleans

Can′t you people function for a little while?
Without me bouncing off your satellite for a night

Drink it faster, drink it slow
That′s what I know
When you've gotten to the bottom of it
It′s time to go
And when you've lived to be two hundred feel free to proffer your advice
But until that time
Here′s my auto reply

I threw my phone in a pool
In New Orleans
Found the love of my life
Again y'all knows what I means
And I′ll be back on the sofa in a puddle in a couple of weeks

That's what I know
That's what I know
