When the Phone Stops Ringing Songtext
(Holly Knight/Bernie Taupin)
He said to me tonight "Why stay? They only tell you lies".
Is it a dream? My conscience tells me it′s just make believe.
Don't be a fool for boys, it′s only common sense.
So mama says "use your head", can't you tell he's got you
Hypnotized and paralysed, and I see trouble up ahead.
It′s over when the phone stops ringing.
He′s never, ever going to call me up.
It's over when the phone stops ringing.
He′s done this kind of thing to girls before.
I tried to memorize just how he kissed me when we said goodnight.
So sincere, he said "you see, I'm going to be a millionaire".
My friends only laughed, they think it′s, oh, so cute
To call him names, like how it feels in front of me.
They investigate and confiscate my privacy, they act like it's all a game.
It′s over when the phone stops ringing.
He's never, ever going to call me up.
It's over when the phone stops ringing.
He′s done this kind of thing to girls before.
And how come they have to be so right, all of the time?
He was a special kind of guy.
He said he′d call, now, it's been two days.
Now, all I can hear is mama′s words, mama's words, mama′s words.
Mama's words, mama′s words, mama's words, mama's words.
It′s over when the phone stops ringing.
He′s never, ever going to call me up.
It's over when the phone stops ringing.
He′s done this kind of thing to girls before.
Gonna need a new sensation, gonna need a new sensation.
Gonna need a new sensation, it's over when the phone stops ringing.
Gonna need a new sensation, when the phone stops ringing.
Gonna need a new sensation, when the phone stops ringing.
Gonna need a new sensation, it′s over when the phone stops ringing.
Gonna need a new sensation, when the phone stops ringing.
Gonna need a new sensation, when the phone stops ringing.
Gonna need a new sensation, it's over when the phone stops ringing.

Gonna need a new sensation, it′s over when the phone stops ringing.
Gonna need a new sensation, when the phone stops ringing.
Gonna need a new sensation, when the phone stops ringing.
Gonna need a new sensation, it's over when the phone stops ringing.
