When Sly Calls (Don't Touch That Phone)

Lyrics

When Sly calls
 The profit speaks
 When Sly calls
 The secret leaks
 The sky falls
 The dice are tossed
 The war is won
 The battle's lost
 When Sly calls
 It's thirteen takes
 When Sly calls
 The summer breaks
 The sky falls
 The rain begins
 And on the box some Leon spins
 To insulate me from the icy aftershock I feel each time
 That Sly calls
 (Don't touch the phone)
 I am not here
 I'm making my escape
 The me you hear
 Is magnetized on tape
 I'm flying south
 For snorkeling and sleep
 (à Côte d'Azur)
 Just leave your message when you hear the
 (Don't you dare touch that phone)
 When you hear the
 (Don't you dare touch that phone)
 When you hear the
 (Don't you dare touch that phone)
 When you hear the beep
 When Sly calls
 It's tit for tat
 When Sly calls
 It's rat eat rat
 The sky falls
 The signal fades
 I lock the door and shut the shades
 And contemplate the crystal blue familiar funk I'm plunged into
 When Sly calls
