Deep Cuts Lyrics by Squeeze

Squeeze

[Verse 1]
The man can't cut it on the sofa
But he makes it in the phone booth all day
He says it's comin' 'round, he's breathing down the phone
He saw you in a climax today

[Verse 2]
The man can't cut it in the backseat
But he’d mix it from the end of the phone
He says he got the face it's sticking in its mind
So don't you leave the building all alone

[Chorus 1]
I'm calling from the booth across the street [pant! pant! pant!]
I can see that you're ended 'cause he likes to stay alone
And I’m falling 'cause I can't get to sleep [pant! pant! pant!]
I'm thinking of you I bet you're thinking of me
What it is that I'm doin' wrong

[Verse 3]
The man can't cut it with his marriage
It's no surprise when he's late at 16th spoon
She slaps him 'round the face, she boots him in the head
And then she tells him to get off the phone

[Chorus 2]
I'm calling from the booth across the street [pant! pant! pant!]
I can see that you're in 'cause the lights are still on
And I’m falling 'cause I can't get to sleep [pant! pant! pant!]
I'm thinking of you I bet you're thinking of me
What it is that I'm doin' wrong
What it is that I'm doin' wrong
What it is that I'm doin' wrong
What it is that I'm doin' wrong
I'm calling from the booth across the street

[Outro]
I wanna get up, oh dear, for a dream we ought to tell you a story
All I wrote, bad luck without a slim proposal
Now it goes fast to play, I just sat in a cold room
In a cold apartment, I wanna come around
I wanna come around and have some fun with you
We have to get in the bath together, scrub each other's backs
We all knew we played it bad, of course
See, we're having new troubles here at the moment
You mind if you go now, please, please, don't hang up, you know
I get so lonely, would you put the phone down?
About to put it in the club so she is
The phone's upstairs, the phone's upstairs
Well, I have to find out who I am, and she picks up here and I said
"Hello, I'm still here. I'm still here. I'm still here."
And she put her phone down and get 'em "That wasn’t final!"
And I said "Please don't hang up!"
"Please don't hang up!" ("Please don't hang up!")
"Please don't hang up!" ("Please don't hang up!")
"Please don't hang up!" ("Please don't hang up!")
"Please don't hang up!" ("Please don't hang up!")
"Please don't hang up!" ("Please don't hang up!")
"Please don't hang up!" ("Please don't hang up!")
"Please don't hang up!" ("Please don't hang up!")
"No, don't hang up!" ("Please don't hang up!")
"Please don't hang up!" ("Please don't hang up!")
"Please don't hang up!" ("Please don't hang up!")
"No, don't hang up!" ("No, don't hang up!")
"Please don't hang up!" ("No, don't hang up!")
"Please don't hang up!" ("No, don't hang up!")
"Please don't hang *Clunk!* *Whirr!*
