A Hold Of You

Lambchop · Other Songs - Lambchop

This pencil's got a nice feel to it

It never runs out of lead

And it looks like others in our hands

It writes crazy things instead



It can make a list or describe a thought

It can draw a line or note

But it can't make you respond to this

Testimony that I wrote



'Cause it cannot get a hold of you

It cannot get a hold of you

It cannot get a hold of you

It cannot get a hold of you



In the bedroom was a telephone

It was screwed onto the wall

There were other phones in other rooms

But on this one you would call



The receiver had a curly cord

That would stretch on out the door

Now I keep one in my pants pocket

Who could ask for anything more



'Cause it cannot get a hold of you

It cannot get a hold of you

It cannot get a hold of you

It cannot get a hold of you



Like the great communicator

He can bark across the yard

I'm such a bad annunciator

Understanding me is hard



'Cause I cannot get a hold of you

I cannot get a hold of you



Now the pencil's dull and the keyboard's broke

And the batteries are dead

But some how you still figure out

What's exactly in my head



Like something's got a hold of you

Like something's got a hold of you

Like something's got a hold of you

Like something's got a hold of you



Like something's got a hold of you

Like something's got a hold of you

Like something's got a hold of you

Like something's got a hold of you
