Switchboard Susan

Gary Brooker


Switchboard Susan won't give me a line 
I need a doctor get me 999 
The first time I picked up my telephone 
I fell in love with your ringing tone 

I'm a long distance romancer 
And I keep on trying until I get an answer 
Give me! give me! one more chance 
You're a great, little operator 

Switchboard Susan let me off the hook 
I've been this way since you just gave me a look 
Switchboard Susan girl you're all the rage 
Come on woman now let's get engaged 

I'm a long distance romancer 
And I keep on trying until I get an answer 
Give me! give me! one more chance 
You're a great, little operator 

Now when I look at you girl I get an extension 
And I don't mean on Alexander Graham Bell's invention 
Switchboard Susan can we be friends 
After six and at weekends 

I'm a long distance romancer 
And I keep on trying until I get an answer 
Give me! give me! one more chance 
You're a great, little operator
