[Verse 1]
'Til the world really goes up in smoke, don't bother me
'Cause I have got the handle, on such a simple philosophy
Let someone else track down the clues and call me with the news

[Verse 2]
Your solemn attitude, it don't bother me none
Take your time, make up your mind if I'm really the one
Then you decide if I win or lose and call me with the news
Call me with the news

[Bridge]
My number's in the book but if I'm not home
You can leave your message on the code-a-phone
And I'll get back to you soon, soon, as I get a chance

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Well, the wise men, they come and go, everybody's got a hook
But I don't need to lay my money down to discover that I've been took
So when you find a truth I could use, call me with the news
Call me with the news
Call me with the news
Call me with the news
