Simple minds do simple things
Like give away big diamond rings
Just give away, give away diamond rings
Simple minds do simple things

Well it's just another minute on the telephone
You can call him up but he's not at home
No, he's not
Well it's just another minute on the telephone
You can call him up when he's not at home
No, he's not
(No, no, no, no)

Don't know, don't know what to do (Don't know what to do)
Can't think, can't think, can't think it through (Think, think, think it through)
Hey honey have you got the time (Honey, have you got the time)
Hey honey have you got a dime (Hey, dime!)
He hasn't called for a week (Hasn't called for a week)
You wanna call him 'cause you're about to freak (Freak, freak, freak)

Well it's just another minute on the telephone
You can call him up but he's not at home
No, he's not
Well it's just another minute on the telephone
You can call him up but he's not at home
No

You want to bang bang this
You want to bang bang that
But he ain't coming back, he ain't coming back
You want to bang bang bang
You want to bang bang bang
But he ain't coming back
Back back back back etc

Yes you go down like that
You go down like that
'Cause he ain't coming back
He ain't coming back

Don't know, don't know what to do (Don't know what to do)
(Think, think, think it through)

Well it's just another minute on the telephone
You can call him up but he's not at home
No, he's not
Well it's just another minute on the telephone
You can call him up but he's not at home
No, he's not

You want to bang bang this
You want to bang bang that
But he ain't coming back, he ain't coming back
You want to bang bang bang
You want to bang bang bang
But he ain't coming back
Back back back back etc
