Phone

S Liszt

Ode
Oh cell phone - I don’t know what to do
The constant beeping, buzzing and vibrating
I'm so distracted by you
The noise has my ears continuously aching

Mom says I need to finish soon
I can't I'm going crazy
Now I'm getting a call
I need to turn off this awful tune
Wait! I've got an idea just maybe
I've decided to return you to the mall
