Call Box (1-2-3) Lyrics - Dark Continent - Wall Of Voodoo

I press the buttons now 

Voice keeps poppin' on the call box out 

Mop-man, do you receive? 

Ten-four, I gotta pull out 

I got an ETA, five-thirty on the dot 

A little bit later, it'll thicken the plot 

Chorus: 

They always tell me what's not is not 

I just gotta get that 1-2-3 

It's funny how these things always happen to me 

I just gotta get that 1-2-3 

Now, by the force of circumstance 

And by the belt that holds up my pants 

I'm held responsible 

For this idea that never had a chance 

When they call out the guard tonight 

He'll cut the alarm and switch off the light 

Chorus: 

I get a funny feeling that wrong is right 

I just gotta get that 1-2-3 

It's funny how these things always happen to me 

I just gotta get that 1-2-3 

1 2 3 

A B C 

Like you and me 

Like 1 2 3 

1 2 3 

1-2-3 

A B C 

1-2-3 

1 2 3 

1-2-3 

It's a combination... 

I press the buttons noooooooow... 

I press the buttons now 

Voice keeps poppin' on the call box out 

Mop-man, do you receive? 

Ten-four, I gotta pull out 

I got an ETA, five-thirty on the dot 

A little bit later, it'll thicken the plot 

Chorus: 

They always tell me what's not is not 

I just I gotta get that 1-2-3 

It's funny how these things always happen to me 

I guess I gotta get that 1-2-3 

1 2 3 

A B C 

Like you and me 

Like 1 2 3 

Not is not 

Not-is-not 

Not is not 

Not is not
