Lyrics: Ansaphone
Album: Unknown
Artist: Pulp
 

Oh I know I don’t own you / but I don’t even know if I should phone you / Someone sending
me letters / saying you’ve been going with other fellers / And they / bored you / But I /
don’t wanna cry / or talk for hours / to a machine / on the end / of a telephone line / Oh
it just kills me / when all you’ve got to do is call / Oh do it any time / ’cause there’s
never no-one home / never no-one home / Leave your message on the ansaphone / I’m not
trying to be clever / but at least we’re not still living together / All those calls in
the evening / if I answered they’d hang up without speaking / And they / bored you / But I
/ don’t want to cry / or talk for hours / to a machine / on the end / of a telephone line
/ Oh it just kills me / when all you’ve got to do is call / Oh do it any time / ’cause
there’s never no-one home / never no-one home / Leave your message on the ansaphone /
[Beep!] / ‘Hello, its me. I just wanted to call and say it doesn’t matter what you
get up to. I just want you to stay in touch. That’s all.’ / Are you really not at
home? / Or are you there but not alone? / Screening calls / you don’t want to receive /
meaning calls / calls that come from me / Oh I / need to see you / It’s not enough for me
just to hear you / You said you’d be here by ten thirty / but you want to stay out and be
dirty / Oh it just kills me / when all you’ve got to do is call / Oh do it any time /
’cause there’s never no-one home / never no-one home / Leave your message on the
ansaphone.
