Yeah-yeah, oooh

Well, back in 1876 an old boy named Bell
Invented a contraption that we know so well
By the 1950's, they're in everybody's home
It's a crazy little thing they call the telephone

Now there's one on every corner
In the back of every bar
You can get one in your briefcase
On a plane, or in your car

So tell me why (why)
Haven't I (haven't I)
Heard from you (why haven't I heard from you?)
Oh yeah, ohh
Tell me why (why)
Haven't I (haven't I)
Heard from you? (why haven't I heard from you?)

I said now darling, honey
What is your excuse?
Why haven't I heard from you?

Oooh
Yeah-eah-eah-eah

Well, there's no problem getting to me, baby
You can dial direct
I got call forward and call waiting
You can even call collect
The service man, he told me
That my phone was working fine
And I've come to the conclusion
The trouble isn't with my line

I'm sure the operator
Would be glad to put you through
So dial zero for assistance
If this all confuses you

So tell me why (why)
Haven't I (haven't I)
Heard from you (why haven't I heard from you?)
Ohhh
Tell me why (why)
Haven't I (haven't I)
Heard from you? (why haven't I heard from you?)
Ohh

I said now darling, honey
What is your excuse?
Why haven't I heard from you?

There better been a flood
A landslide of mud
A fire that burns up the wires

And a thunder so loud
With a black funnel cloud
A natural disaster
I know nothin' about

Tell me why (why)
Haven't I (haven't I)
Heard from you (why haven't I heard from you?)
Oh yeah
Tell me why (why)
Haven't I (haven't I)
Heard from you? (why haven't I heard from you?)
Ohh

I said now darling, honey
What is your excuse?
Why haven't I heard from you?

Tell me why (why)
Haven't I (haven't I)
Heard from you (why haven't I heard from you?)
No, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Tell me why (why)
Haven't I (haven't I)
Heard from you? (why haven't I heard from you?)
Ohh

I said now darling, honey
What is your excuse?
Why haven't I heard from you?

Ohhh
Yeah-yeah-yeah
