Dearest, When You Called

Dearest when you called
Oh, my what a relief
The photo from the phone and the counting of teeth
Oh, the most terribe part of it was
How calm you were about it

The Buissness of fear
The poitics of cheap
You wonder if the people up top are asleep
Numb to the fact of how fat we've grown
Leave your name and number
There's no one home

Tell us it will change
Someday Someday Someday
Just Wait
Someday Someday Someday
Ohh they say all
Things will change
Someday Someday Someday
Someday Someday Someday

The Tunnels of ports
Islands safe and clear
The television reports on the mother and her tears
We know whom to watch by the length of the nose
Leave your name and number
There's no one home

Tell us to wait
For change
Someday Someday Someday
Tell us to watch, and wait
Someday Someday Someday
Someday Someday Someday
Someday Someday Someday
Someday Someday Someday
Someday Someday Someday
Someday Someday Someday
