Telephone Games Lyrics

Baby can you be more modest

I'm tryna get in your mind

And I can't do that without some help uh

And I can't be here without nobody else but you

You know I need you to, to

Tell me what you want, what you on

Wanna go out? Or I can take you home

Think about it and you just gon have to let me know

If you stay in, you better pick up the telephone baby

Can't wipe your tears, cause I'm afraid

Afraid of your sleeve

Cause your heart is in pieces on it

Can't wipe your tears, cause I'm afraid

Bathing in steam, I breathe to sing a sonnet

Bathing in steam, I breathe the sing a, aye

Searching for yesterday

They say tomorrow ain't promised

But it ain't a thing

You know that I got it

Till I don't, I got it

I'm running home, I got it, I got it uh

Until I don't, I got it, I got it, I got it

Pass it along

Telephone, tell a friend that I'm gone

Quietly making my mark, shawty know that I don't talk, okay

She went over to the chalkboard and kinda wrote me off

She said, "whisper but don't make the phrase too long"

I get lost in translation, no cup and string attached

But she be crocheting, now she's pulling the blanket

Start the telephone game and start conversating

I said, "you know I love you baby"

And later she says "you know I hate you and you made me"

Can't wipe your tears, cause I'm afraid

Afraid of your sleeve

Cause your heart is in pieces on it

Can't wipe your tears, cause I'm afraid

Bathing in steam, I breathe to sing a sonnet

Bathing in steam, I breathe the sing a, aye

Searching for yesterday

They say tomorrow ain't promised

But it ain't a thing

You know that I got it

Till I don't, I got it

I'm running home, I got it, I got it uh

Until I don't, I got it, I got it, I got it

Pass it along

Yesterday, they say tomorrow aint promised

But it aint a thing

You know that I got it

Until I don't

I got it, I got it

I'm running home, I got it, I got it, I got it

Until I don't

I got it, I got it, I got it

Pass it along, telephone

I been working on me

Are you working on you? And

I done seen it all

So it's hard to tell the truth from the lies

It ain't got no rules to it

But I'm just amused

Cause the things that you're doing got me so lost

I'm ruled out of the game

Injury, misery

I notice that you're missing me

It's hard cause I know you got

Some things on your mind that you can't even get off

Aye it's some traits that I got that keep you around

Yeah, I've been up, I've been bruised

I've been down, I've been used

And I'm used to overthinking

And I'm used to never sleeping

And I'm used to inconvenience

And I'm used to needing a lot of things

I, I need to fix my posture

I need to call the bank

Dispute that charge then fix some pasta

I need to finish that song

I need to go on a jog cause I'm feeling awful

I need to make that call bruh

Just make that call
