Lifeline

Operator operator do I really need you
do I need you to put me through
do I need you holding open the line
do I need you show me some kind of sign
Throw me, throw me a lifeline
throw me a lifeline, right now
I said throw me, throw me a lifeline
throw me a lineline, right now

My beauty and my ugliness they went for a ride
Beauty said to ugly baby I gotta drive
Ugly said to beauty well I don’t mind that
Hit beauty in the head with a big ol’ baseball bat
Throw me, throw me a lifeline
throw me a lifeline, right now
I said throw me, throw me a lifeline
throw me a lineline, right now

You’re doing me a favour man when did you decide
To keep your mouth shut and your arms out wide
You could be complaining but you just let it ride
You’re the reason I came back to life after I died
Throw me, throw me a lifeline
throw me a lifeline, right now
I said throw me, throw me a lifeline
throw me a lineline, right now

 

this song is stupid lyrically and pointless emotionally and I have no relationship or feeling toward it anymore except I occasionally sing the chorus when it’s apropos. It was professionally recorded, that’s the best thing I can say about it. Paul W. (PD Wohl, Wohl of Sound) did a great job of adding instrument tracks back in 2005, very fine guitarist, much to my taste. Of course this is the Garageband version, if I find the one PD did I’ll post it here.
