this happens every time you call my line
i've got plenty say
about the state of things in my life and the weather to-day
then i feel okay

you, see: i don't feel so alone
when sally's on the phone
and i'm asking her about the next time she's driving home

sally marie is a sad girl but she smiled bright blue
when i told her the good news 
about how all my friends are dead now except for her 
so i don't have to choose
between the stiff and fragrant corpses and her little hand 
all fleshy and new
and with her long lost love like a spaceship in my empty mind 
i've got something to do

you, see: i don't feel so alone
when sally's on the phone
and i'm asking her about the next time she's driving home

and sally says:
i am a human being with doors and ceilings and floor like you
i've even got a kitchen and a cat named richard just like you
i know the names of your servants and have had mine renamed like yours
we've got the same initials, november birthdays, and brand of shoes

you, see: i don't feel so alone
when sally's on the phone
and i'm asking her about the next time she's driving home
