I usually avoid any kind of confrontation, conversation, moderation, Lips sealed but my fingers are flying And hours the hours pass they grow more impatient My phone is magnetic, especially when I'm sauced up And I admit that I'm ashamed But there's Melissa, Theresa and Emily what a toss up But that's the best part of the game And i'm really an anonymous aspiring alcoholic drowning the days pain in hops, barley and grain Thinking of ways to convince one to join me in the company of low-lifes sort doing the same So I start texting, I keep texting, I can't stop, it's my obsession it's like fish and my words are like lures If they bought the bait cool, If not call it a night Weekend, like we should have, and I know And I try, to be a good boy but it's hard I start texting, I keep texting, I can't stop, it's my obsession Now ask yourself this; Is love a tender thing, too rough, too rude, too boisterous? Well i'll tell you what man, I had it once it was fun but not enough Tis torture, not mercy Heaven is where my phone lives, in my pocket, so cozy oh what a joy replies give Well Melissa?s babysitting, and Theresa?s working late, Emily?s on her way to East 11th on the train And that's when I remember Patty from West Philly she said ?i'm in your area, three minutes away?

I know I want to but I can't and I shouldn?t Try to put my phone down, damn, but I couldn?t Stayed on the phone with him all night long Text message when i'm gone Weekend, like we should have, and I know And I try, to be a good boy but it's hard Weekend, like we should have, and I know And I try, to be a good boy but it's hard
