bass & kassel - the telephone song lyrics
[verse 1: telephone gals]
holly: h-llo madame
brenda: yes i can
charlotte: i’ll connect your call
ann: excuse me!
virginia: what was that?
meg: you changed your mind?
sarah: no not at all
nancy, marita & virignia: sorry, i’ll connect you right away
nancy: just one moment please?
marita: i promise
all: have a pleasant day
[chorus: all telephone gals]
it’s the same old story
line to line to line
reveling in all their glory
connections intertwined
time and time again we answer
collectively we groan, huh!
but it’s our job to patch them through when we hear that tone
[spoken: christine, sarah, holly, and meg]
christine: good morning ladies. how is everyone?
the gals groan and sigh
sarah: i feel like i’ve already run a marathon this morning. getting four boys up, dressed, fed, and ready for school feels like a full time job by itself. i need a vacation!
holly: ooh, vacation!
meg: sarah, look at your shoes!
sarah: what’s wrong with my shoes?
sarah looks down and notices she has two different shoes on. she shrugs
sarah: i’m just glad i remembered to put something on my feet
christine: no time for vacation you two. the people of los angeles need us
meg: well, it must feel nice to be needed. since jimmy has been off to college, i’ve been lost. i’ve got no one to take care of. i’d give anything for him to be back in grade school like walter. how is he doing anyway, christine?
christine: just swell, thank you meg. he’s becoming very independent. had to sneak a hug to his mama before school this morning. i have to face it. my baby boy is growing up
holly: when i finally decide to settle down and get married, i want to have a kid just like walter! he is such a sweetie!
sarah: well, you can have one of mine!
christine: alright ladies, time to take off our mother hats for the next several hours. everyone ready?
meg: i’m as ready as i’ll ever be
[verse 2: the telephone gals]
virginia: if you could hold that just a moment
brenda: what?
charlotte: i’m sorry!
marita: yes?
meg: what did you just say to me?
holly: what color is my dress? it’s blue!
sarah: i’m just here to place your call
ann: and get you on your way
marita: no!
ann: no thank you
nancy: ugh, goodbye sir
all: never a dull day
[chorus: all telephone gals]
we hear screaming babies (h-llo?)
and men who like to cry
there are certain ladies (h-llo?)
who never say goodbye
time and time again we answer (h-llo?)
collectively we groan, huh!
but it’s our job to patch them through (h-llo?)
when we hear that tone
here is what i’ll do, let me patch you through
take it easy, please
i am connecting you
holly: yoo-hoo!
whether far or near, the connection’s clear
listen dear, please never fear
we’re always here!
h-llo? (thank you, thank you)
h-llo? (thank you, thank you)
h-llo, h-llo, h-llo, h-llo
[spoken: meg and holly]
meg: is it over yet?
holly: only four hours to go!
[verse 3: all telephone gals]

h-llo madame (h-llo? yes, sir.)

i’ll connect your call
excuse me? (h-llo? thank you!)
what was that?
you changed your mind?

please don’t yell sir. (h-llo? my pleasure.)
sorry. (thank you!)
i’ll connect you right away
just one moment (h-llo?)
please, i promise (thank you!)

have a pleasant day!
[spoken: christine, sarah, holly and meg]
meg: it would be a pleasant day if someone would save me from god forsaken people!
holly: oh meg, it’s not so bad. try to see the good in everyone!
christine: well, i’m off a little early. i have an important date to get to
meg: take me with you!
sarah: my boys love ice cream!
holly: oh me too! it’s so creamy!
meg: have a scoop for me christine
holly: and sweet!
sarah: give walter a big hug from us gals
holly: but it makes my brain hurt sometimes
christine: i sure will. have a great weekend ladies!
meg: you too!
sarah: see you bright and early monday morning, christine!
[chorus: all telephone gals]
it’s the same old story
line to line to line
reveling in all their glory
time and time again we answer
collectively we groan, huh!
but it’s our job to patch them through
when we hear that tone
here is what i’ll do, let me patch you through
take it easy, please
i am connecting you
whether far or near, the connection’s clear
listen dear, please never fear
we’re always here!
h-llo? h-llo? h-llo? h-llo?
time and time again we answer
collectively we groan, huh!
but it’s our job to patch them through (thank you!)
yes, it’s our job to patch them through (yoo-hoo!)
we’re the ones that patch them through from their telephones!
