Rupert Holmes - Answering Machine lyrics

A little while ago I went and placed a call To tell this girl I know that she could have it all The wedding, the ring, the whole dumb thing I was willing to tie the knot So I called her up, and this is the answer I got "I'm so sorry you have just reached my answering machine I'm not in at present, I'm sure you know this whole routine Leave your name and number And I'll try and get back to you You have thirty seconds to talk to me before you're through" And I said, "Baby, let's go get married Well, I need to know you're mine I am hangin' on, I am hangin' on I am hangin' on this line And if I can leave one message Before you go to bed I would say to you..." And the phone went dead So I stepped out to buy some dog food for the cat Of course she called about three minutes after that Would she be my wife and share my life? Well, of course you can write the plot 'Cause she called me up, and this is the answer she got "I'm so sorry you have just reached my answering machine I'm not in at present, I'm sure you know this whole routine Leave your name and number And I'll try and get back to you You have thirty seconds to talk to me before you're through" And she said, "Baby, I got your message Well, I'm answering your call I have thought it out, I have thought it out And I think that all-in-all If you ask if we can marry, and make it for all time Then my answer is..." And the phone went "I'm so sorry you have just reached my answering machine I'm not in at present, I'm sure you know this whole routine I'm so sorry you have just reached my answering machine I'm not in at present, I'm sure you know this whole routine I'm so sorry you have just reached my answering machine I'm not in at present, I'm sure you know this whole routine I'm so sorry you have just reached my answering machine I'm not in at present, I'm sure you know this whole routine I'm so sorry you have just reached my answering machine I'm not in at present, I'm sure you know this whole routine"
