Bad Connection
Yazoo Song Lyrics

Morning, this morning, the curtains are shut

I'll ring you in the morning, but the phone's been cut

Can you hear me? (oo, can you hear me? oo, can you hear me?)

I've been calling all day

Can you hear me? (oo, can you hear me? oo, can you hear me?)

The radio reporter said the line's all dead

He told me that I oughta write a letter instead

Can you hear me? (oo, can you hear me? oo, can you hear me?)

I've been calling all day

Can you hear me? (oo, can you hear me? oo, can you hear me?)

[Chorus]

I'd wish they'd fix the wires, 'cause my baby don't know

That I'm leaving in the morning, and I'm ready to go

Can you hear me? can you hear me at all?

Gotta get the operator, make a telephone call

And if I write a letter it won't get there on time

I'll only reach you, baby, on the telephone line

Can you hear me? (oo, can you hear me? oo, can you hear me?)

I've been calling all day

Can you hear me? (oo, can you hear me? oo, can you hear me?)

My car's all ready, and my bags are all packed

I'm late already, and I won't be back

Can you hear me? (oo, can you hear me? oo, can you hear me?)

I've been calling you all day

Can you hear me? (oo, can you hear me? oo, can you hear me?)

[Chorus]

Do do do do-do-do do do do

Do do do do-do-do do do do

Do do do do-do-do do do do

Do do do do-do-do do do do

(Can I help you?

(Hello?)

(You're playing with the phone, aren't you?)

(A person with no voice answering)

(I'm talking to the person who's got no voice who's at the other end of this telephone)

(Getting his little kicks playing on the telephone)

[Chorus]

(Oo, can you hear me?)

(Oo, can you hear me?)

(Oo, can you hear me?)

(Oo, can you hear me?)

(Oo, can you hear me?)

(Oo, can you hear me?)

(Oo, can you hear me?)

(Oo, can you hear me?)
