A long distance directory assistance, area code 212
And say, hey, A&R, this is Mister Rhythm and Blues
You said, "Hello" and put me on hold
To say the least, the cat was cold
He said, "Don't call us, child, we'll call you"
I said, "You got my number?"
He said, "Yeah, I got it when you walked in the door"
Don't call us, we'll call you
Don't call us, we'll call you
(Oh yeah, he said wait a minute though, he said)
I got your name from a friend of a friend
Who said he used to work with you
You remember the all night creature from Stereo Ninety Two?
Yeah, I said, "Could you relate to our quarter track tape
You know the band performs in the nude"
He said, "Uh-huh, don't call us, child, we'll call you"
Woo
Well, listen, kid, you paid for the call
You ain't bad but we've heard it all before
And it sounds like John, Paul and George
Child, anyway
Anyway, we cut a hit and we toured a bit
With a song he said he couldn't use
And now he calls and begs and crawls
It's telephone déjà vu
We got percentage points and lousy joints
And all the glitter we can use, mama
So, ha, don't call us now, we'll call you
Woo
You may hear this one too before I said, you know
I said, listen, kid, you paid for the call
Hell, well you ain't bad but I've heard it all before, uh
Don't call us, we'll call you
Don't call us
Don't call us, we'll call you
Don't call us, we'll call you
