I couldn't keep it a secret any longer I'm tired of playing cool If it's a sentimental season girl Then I'm crazy about you Well you never come around You're never coming home I'd give you the skin off my bones to get you alone Pick up the phone, pick up the phone Cause when you don't Girl, I can't handle it Pick up the phone, pick up the phone tonight Cause I need someone Someone to surrender To let me inside, to let me inside I'm all alone Oh, don't be so cold Pick up the phone I couldn't stay in a cage any longer I'm a lion hear me roar You've got me tied up so tight But it ain't right Girl, it's just not right If I knew the words to say to you To melt your heart Or to get you alone Pick up the phone, pick up the phone Cause when you don't Girl, I can't handle it
Pick up the phone, pick up the phone tonight Cause I need someone Someone to surrender To let me inside, let me inside I'm all alone Oh, don't be so cold Pick up the phone Cause I'm here dying of a broken Friday night I wanna know why you're not talking Girl, you bury me alive Cause I'm the one you want When all the boys are cruel to you Pick up the phone I couldn't keep it a secret any longer I won't be kept in a cage any longer You can't keep me away no longer To get you alone... Pick up the phone, pick up the phone Cause when you don't Girl, I can't handle it Pick up the phone, pick up the phone tonight Cause I need someone Someone to surrender To let me inside, to let me inside I'm all alone Oh, don't be so cold Pick up the phone
