They Might Be Giants Operators Are Standing By Lyrics

Verse 1:
Operators are standing by
Smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee
Bounce their shoes at the end of their feet
And wish they could go home
Chorus:
Operators are standing by
Poking holes in the ceiling tiles
Making jokes about their old boyfriends and
Days gone by
Verse 2:
Operators are standing by
Talking about their portrayal
On the TV where an actress sits
With a headset in outer space
Bridge:
That's enough talking, ladies.
Verse 3:
Operators are standing by
Smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee
Pass 'round a picture of a mobius strip
And wish they could go home
end on D
