Hangin’ On The Line Lyrics by The Ladybug Transistor

The Ladybug Transistor

2003

He's looking for her but she's been gone
Under the bridge of the Roman Wall
He's looking forward to taking a ride
North of the town country divide
But it's just a little more than he can pay
Now she's reading tea leaves in every cup
Tracing the lines from the bottom up
There's a telephone on the wall
She's got a hand in the final call
Now we're hangin' on the line
It's just a little daydream
Where we're hangin' on the line
Underpaid for all the plans we laid
So we wander, we wander
The string of lights in the doorway
The city key in your hand
A happening to your liking
So you wander back
A film on endless repeat
The counter's falling behind
And if he runs, he may catch her
He wonders why
We're writing stories that could be true
I know the cost, what it's costing you
So I've been stealing all of my lines
Straight from the school of new design
But they're just a little more than I can say
So get on a new wave, it's hard to miss
Dressed in nines and 66
Now we're changing all the time
It's just a little daydream
Where we're changing all the time
Underpaid for all the plans we laid
So we wander, we wander
The string of lights in the doorway
The city key in your hand
A happening to your liking
So you wander back
A film on endless repeat
The counter's falling behind
And if he runs, he may catch her
He wonders why
