On Call

Friday night, in the Eastside, it's turnin' pink and red
Jessie tried to see if I would meet her at El Cid

I know she'd like to get me three drinks in
It's not like you and I made any concrete plans, but

I'm on call
Should you set yourself on fire
I'm on call
Should you get struck with desire
You got my number
Should you need anything at all (I'm on call)
I'll make myself real available (Hello?)

Serves me right, it's justified, that you should make me wait
'Cause Jessie's sweet, but I just keep around until you say

And I know it's a little undignified
But if your car won't start, and you need a ride, then

I'm on call
Should you set yourself on fire
I'm on call
Should you get struck with desire
You got my number
Should you need anything at all
I'll make myself real available (I'm on call)

I wanna be somebody to you (somebody to you)
But if you just want a warm body, that works too (that works too)
In my dreams, you need someone to catch you when you fall, and

I'm on call
Should you set yourself on fire
I'm on call
Should you get struck with desire
You got my number
Should you need anything at all
I'll make myself real available (I'm on, on call)

I'm on call
I'm on call
I'm on call
I'm on call
I'm on call
I'm on call
I'm on call
