Lyrics:Operators Are Standing By (Dial-A-Song)

From This Might Be A Wiki
Operators Are Standing By (Dial-A-Song)
By: They Might Be Giants

Copyright: Unknown

Operators are standing by
Smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee
Bounce their shoes at the end of their feet
And wish they could go home 

Operators are standing by
Poking holes in the ceiling tiles
Making jokes about their old boyfriends

Operators are standing by
Talking about their portrayal
On TV where an actress sits
With a headset in outer space

That's enough talking, ladies.

Operators are standing by
Smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee
Pass 'round a picture of a mobius strip
And wish they could go home
And wish they could go home.
