Long Call Short Talk Lyrics by ​The Beat

2019

Long call and short talk, yeah
Your  anonymous number calls five times a day
Then  I hang you up after five hours
With nothing said
I’ve lost the day
You  talked me into night
Now  you’re pushing me in circles
Don’t know left from right
I  gave you green light
Let you in
Gave you right away
Now I see red light
But  I cannot brake
You’re like the yellow light
But I wanna wait
And I can’t get you out of my life…
Long call, short talk
Not letting me get into your game
No, no, no, no, no
It’s a long call, short talk
Not letting you get into my brain
No, no, no, no, no, baby…
Yeah you kinda over-excess
That’s why you add me on your GPS
You know where I go to shop
And where I eat
I get home late
You’re in your car across the street
I close the door and what?
The phone… it rings again
For your persistence you get ten out of ten
Out of ten, out of ten
I gave you green light
Let you in
Gave you right away
Now I see red light
But I cannot brake
You’re like the yellow light
But I wanna wait
And I can’t get you out of my life…
Long call, short talk
Not letting me get into your game
No, no, no, no, no
It’s a long call, short talk
Not letting you get into my brain
No, no, no, no, no, you gave me
Long call, short talk
Not letting me get into your game
No, no, no, no, no
It’s a long call, short talk
Not letting you get into my brain
No, no, no, no, no…
On and on
Why you keeping on, keeping on?
On and on
Why you keeping on?
Why you keeping on?
Every minute, every day
Why keeping on?
Take a look
Then you’re gone
Then you’re back again
I can’t get you out of my life…
Long call, short talk
Not letting me get into your game
No, no, no, no, no
It’s a long call, short talk
Not letting you get into my brain
No, no, no, no, no, forget it
Long call, short talk
Not letting me get into your game
No, no, no, no, no, you gave me
Long call, short talk
Not letting you get into my brain
No, no, no, no, no, forget it
Tell me ‘bout the long talk again… hey
