Ansaphone Lyrics - Pulp

Oh I know I don't own you 

but I don't even know if I should phone you 

Someone's sending me letters 

saying you've been going with other fellers. 

And babe 

I want you. 

But I 

don't wanna cry. 

Or talk for an hour 

to a machine 

on the end 

of a telephone line. 

Oh it just kills me 

when all you got to do is call 

Oh do it any time 

cos there's never no-one home 

never no-one home 

Leave your message on the ansaphone.

I'm not trying to be clever 

but at least we're not still living together 

All those calls in the evening 

if I answered they'd hang up without speaking 

And babe 

I want you, 

But I 

don't want to cry 

or talk for an hour 

to a machine 

on the end 

of a telephone line 

Oh it just kills me 

when all you got to do is call 

Oh do it any time 

cos there's never no-one home 

never no-one home

"Hello, its me. I just wanted to call and say 

it doesn't matter what you're up to. 

I just want you to stay in touch. 

That's all." 

Are you really not at home? 

Or are you there but not alone? 

Screening calls 

you don't want to receive 

meaning calls 

calls that come from me 

Oh I 

need to see you 

It's not enough for me just to hear you 

You said you'd be here by ten thirty 

but you want to stay out and be dirty 

Oh it just kills me 

when all you got to do is call 

Oh do it any time 

cos there's never no-one home 

never no-one home 

Leave your message on the ansaphone.
