《OGM》歌词

[00:00:00] OGM - Loudon Wainwright III

[00:00:22] The ong on our machine

[00:00:24] Began with we're not here now

[00:00:27] But you went and changed the we to no one

[00:00:29] Do you mean us or me

[00:00:32] Your new outgoing voice

[00:00:33] Sounds bright and brave and very clear now

[00:00:37] In those seconds you recorded it

[00:00:39] I guess that you felt free

[00:00:45] I started out my message

[00:00:47] With a pause that I aborted

[00:00:50] When I addressed you oddly

[00:00:51] By your given christian name

[00:00:55] Then I told you who was calling you

[00:00:57] That felt downright sordid

[00:01:01] But if I sounded sad and timid

[00:01:03] I achieved my aim

[00:01:07] There's a machine where I'm staying

[00:01:08] That displays a big fat zero

[00:01:11] But last night I arrived

[00:01:13] To find a scary bright red one

[00:01:17] So I pressed play and pretty soon

[00:01:19] I could feel all my fear go

[00:01:22] The few silent seconds that you'd left me

[00:01:25] Are erased and gone now

[00:01:54] Tonight at last we finally spoke

[00:01:56] You sounded rather giddy

[00:01:59] You said you'd had a few drinks

[00:02:01] And you'd been playing with the cat

[00:02:04] When I told you that I missed you

[00:02:06] Your reply to me was really

[00:02:11] Then you said you might have found

[00:02:13] Someone to share the flat

[00:02:18] I said I'd call in a few days

[00:02:20] You know I'll keep my promise

[00:02:23] Yes I miss you is it over

[00:02:26] I don't really know

[00:02:30] As for any messages

[00:02:31] I'll try to keep them honest

[00:02:35] And when I hear that no one's there now

[00:02:38] I'll just scream hello
