Deadbolt standing in your overcoat
I wish I had ten thousand volts
I'd give you a major jolt


Cause everytime I phone you
You're deep in catatonia

Baby I'm a greasy pig tryin' to work your screwloose

Deadbeat frozen there in your feet

I wish I had a piece of heat
Lord you know I'd make you leap


Cause everytime I phone you
You're deep in catatonia
Baby I'm a greasy pig tryin' to work your screwloose


When you worked at that station on the corner
I never took you for a gonner

When you went to finishin' school it finished you

If I had a pack of dangerous firecrackers

You know where I'd stick them

Cause everytime I phone you

You're deep in catatonia
Baby I'm a greasy pig tryin' to work your screwloose


Work on it, work on it, work on it, work on it, work on it
