Trouble In The Message Centre

I am the message centre

Local and direct

Room to room an operator

  No calls today, dear,

  They'll just have to wait, dear,

I call and I collect

  So just strike him softly

	Away from the body



You're made up too shiny today

  There's so much trouble

Your thoughts are just pissing away

  It's so much trouble

So much trouble



I am a manager

And I am in control

As the local delegator

  No calls today, dear

  They'll just have to wait, dear

I offer no guarantee at all

  So don't take it lightly,

  You passed your sell-by date



You're made up too shiny today

	It's so much trouble

Your thoughts are just pissing away

  It's so much trouble



A new typeface, a new day

  It's so much trouble

You can't remember ten minutes ago

  It's so much trouble

Too much trouble



La la la la la

La la la la

La la la la la

La la la



  You passed your sell-by date

You're made up too shiny today

  It's so much trouble

Thoughts are just pissing away

  It's so much trouble

A new typeface, a new day

  It's so much trouble

You can't remember ten minutes ago

  It's so much trouble

It's too much trouble

La la la la la

La la la la

[etc. to fade]
