Passing Strange

The Repairman

The Repairman

I was just sitting here

waiting

when the phone guy finally showed up.

We didn't talk much at first, just like you and I.

He was busy checking the line and I think he was a little shy.

But after awhile, he said he really liked my smile.

And I have to tell you Harry, the way that he said it -

it almost made me high.

Well, I guess that's all I have to say..

except I won't be home tonight,

I'm going away.

Oh, and I know you don't call much from work

anyhow,

but if you do... the phone works okay, now.
