It's called a hang up
Click
Tone…Tone…Tone

Persistence is such a futile thing
But I have all this energy to spare
I'm exhausted
It's not like you can tell

'We're sorry your call cannot be completed
As dialed, please hang up and try
Again'

You are immersed in stringing your wires
The ones you leave me out on
when you want me to dry
Call Waiting and waiting and waiting

'Please hang up
And try again
We're sorry your call cannot be completed'

You're busy
On the other line
I have poor reception
But I keep dialing the numbers

It's called a hang up
Click
Tone…Tone…Tone
