The Vandals - Goop All Over The Phone lyrics

rate me

He met her at the soundcheck, where she was tendin' bar

Bodacious one sand ruby lips, a regular movie star

Hersingin' voice was pleasin', that's how she got her name

He wasn't from her neighborhood, but he loved herjust the same

How he wished he could move to Hollywood

How he wished he could move to Hollywood

But there's goop all over the phone, and Pleasant all over the bill

He'd like to see a lot more of her, cause she gives him such a thrill

But he's from down in Long Beach, and she lives in Hollywood Hills

So there's goop all over the phone, and Pleasant all over the bill

Like a duck after a June bug, he's on that honeybee

And every night he phones her hive and they get real sticky

He tells her that he loves her, but can only talk awhile

Cause the phone gets like a greased up hog and the bill's a country mile

(CHORUS)

Now he went off atourin', 'cause the Vandals gotta play

But with every show their love costs more 'cause he gets further away

There's only one solution, a phony calling card

But he yapped & yapped 'till he got slapped with a serious federal charge

(CHORUS)

Now the judge denied him bail, and he fought back the tears

And he thought of Pleasant's beauty as they gave him 20 years

He said, "I'll go real peaceful like, I know I broke the law,

But I ain't no stoop so gimme the goop

'Cause I still got one phone call."

And there's goop all over the phone...
