Answering Machine - The Replacements
Try and breathe some life into a letter
Losing hope, we'll never be together
My courage is at its peak
You know what I mean
How do you say you're okay
To an answering machine?
How do you say goodnight
To an answering machine?
Big time's got its losers
Small town's got its vices
A handful of friends
One needs a match; one needs some ice
Call-waiting phone in another time zone
How do you say I miss you
To an answering machine?
How do say good night
To an answering machine?
I get enough of that
Try to free a slave of ignorance
Try and teach a whore about romance
How do you say I miss you
To an answering machine?
How do you say good night to
An answering machine?
How do you say I'm lonely too
An answering machine?
The message is very plain
Oh, I hate your answering machine
I hate your answering machine
I hate your answering machine...
Losing hope, we'll never be together
My courage is at its peak
You know what I mean
How do you say you're okay
To an answering machine?
How do you say goodnight
To an answering machine?
Big time's got its losers
Small town's got its vices
A handful of friends
One needs a match; one needs some ice
Call-waiting phone in another time zone
How do you say I miss you
To an answering machine?
How do say good night
To an answering machine?
I get enough of that
Try to free a slave of ignorance
Try and teach a whore about romance
How do you say I miss you
To an answering machine?
How do you say good night to
An answering machine?
How do you say I'm lonely too
An answering machine?
The message is very plain
Oh, I hate your answering machine
I hate your answering machine
I hate your answering machine...
