818 Lyrics

Of course it's you... it's 2AM
You feel like dancin' to my R.E.M.
Mix your signals do you feel like sharin'
Or do you just wanna know what I'm wearin'?

8-1-8
Call your telephone date
Safe
Easy to maintain
What you can't see

You think you can forsake
Over the wire
Under the covers

I tease your mind
And I numb your wounds
Feed your ego with a silver spoon
Then it dawns on me
I'm givin' up my sleep
Countin' sheep that don't belong to me

8-1-8
Call your telephone date
Safe
Easy to maintain
What you can't see
You think you can forsake
Over the wire
Under the covers
You're just Safe

'Til you see me face to face
Scared when you see I need repair
So stay - stay away
In your little corner of the U.S.A.

Repeat CHORUS
