Prisoner: "operator I love you.
|
Operator, I would never leave you...
|
Operator I love to see your face pressed up against the glass.
|
I need to hear the way your tongue tastes in my ear..."
|
|
Operator: "Put the receiver to your chest
|
and let me know who loves you best."
|
|
Prisoner: "The county sheriff said that my baby is dead.
|
They found him in some trash can, blue all clenched and chewed.
|
Don't judge me, I'm not his real mother,
|
I couldn't even recognize his face, his tears of wax,
|
his skin like a subway running over spinal tracks.
|
Operator can I confide you?
|
They haven't got an ounce of proof!
|
Those pigs locked me up to see what color i'd rot into!
|
(It wasn't me it was my false tiger limbs..
|
It wasn't me it was the garbage gryphon!)
|
When i walk i wald alone (operator come on!),
|
when I watch you through the phone (operator come on)
|
and depupil these lonely eyes,
|
the love scenes grafted to the sky are making me cry...
|
1-900-USA-NAILS (oh baby)
|
I get one phone call a day from Molson County jail...
|
|
Operator: 1-900-USA-NAILS.

|
|
(noticeable pause)
|
|
Prisoner: Operator-rator wont you tell me again!
|
Operator-rator yeah you're my only friend!
|
|
Operator: "Do you remember that night in the back of daddy's car...
|
strumming the chords of your pubic guitar...
|
the way you tasted like a movie star...
|
the way the windsheild reflected the sunrise,
|
the way the light tattooed your thighs...
|
You're the most beautiful girl in the whole wide world...
|
your time is up, till next time! I'll send you the bill."
|
|
Prisoner: Listen....
|
can you hear the buildings crumbling in slow motion?
|
Blow me up like a balloon we'll float over the ocean!
|
Listen...can you hear them taking me away,
|
don't tell the fucking guards what i've said.
|
Can you see the angels stringing wires through my face?
|
|
Operator: Meet me next week, same time, same place.
