Call My Phone Thinking I'm Doing Nothing Better - The Streets, Tame Impala

Call and call my phone, thinking I’m doing nothing better

I’m just waiting for it to stop so I can use it again

I was gonna call you back, I swear

Just as soon as I felt up to it

You call and call my phone, thinking I’m doing nothing better

I’m just waiting for it to stop so I can get back to it

How funny family is actually fuckin' has you in bits

Your mum has good genes, but Dad’s are ripped

Dance like no one is awkward to music listened to lit

You’d worry less about what they thought

If you knew how little they did

On to better things, they fucking love all of the guessing

Someone just met your ex, thinking they met someone special

I was gonna call you back, I swear

Just as soon as I felt up to it

The phone is ringing, the phone is ringing

Can’t use it 'til it stops

I moan and listen, the tone emits

The only man in black, hi-viz jackets in the cab

Brexit breakfast, Day-Glo stars, I am baggin' and dashin'

Whoever’s with my ex needs to do better

She’s still texting me at two 'til ten

Weird liquor tastes weirdly better when your life is fucked up

I was gonna call you back, I swear

Just as soon as I felt up to it

You call and call my phone, thinking I’m doing nothing better

I’m just waiting for it to stop so I can use it again

Love isn’t a riddle, love isn’t made to be hard

You know I’d give you my kidney, just don’t ever take my charger

So dance like no one is awkward to music listened to lit

You’d worry less about what they thought

If you knew how little they did

You call and call my phone thinking I’m doing nothing better

I’m just waiting for it to stop so I can use it again

I was gonna call you back, I swear

Just as soon as I felt up to it

It just hasn’t happened yet

And I’m still gonna call you back one day

And you can tell me all the news

That you’ve been trying to, oh yeah

You call and call my phone, thinking I’m doing nothing better

I’m just waiting for it to stop so I can use it again

You call and call my phone (I was gonna call you back)

Thinking I’m doing nothing better (I swear)

I’m just waiting for it to stop so I can use it again
