White Telephone To God Lyrics - Tori Amos

Do we have to get older? 

We do 

Do we have to get older? 

We do 

So besides getting grey hair 

Guess what turned up in the mail? 

My very own white telephone 

My very own white telephone to God 

When the white telephone rings 

It's him 

It's not happened to me yet 

But it's happened to my friend 

Hearing from the other end 

We all have to get older 

It's true 

And then Saint Peter said 

"Better older than dead" 

So you're being one to change your diet 

Fresh bread, garlic butter 

Toasted, dipped in the starter 

Some days don't you just need 

Sticky toffee pudding plus 

Extra caramel sauce for luck 

Roasted taters and gravy 

Pizza thin pepperoni 

I'll make a deal with you 

Hold the booze and not tiramisu 

You think you get tiramisu 

Cheesecake, red velvet cupcakes 

Some favour, their dream burger 

Fish and chips with tartar sauce 

Fear will come a weight gain, love 

When the white telephone rings 

It's him 

It's not happened to me yet 

But if I don't change my diet 

Hearing from the end 

We all have to get older 

We do 

But then Saint Peter said 

"Better older than dead" 

"That's your warning 

From your white telephone" 

My very own white telephone to God
