lyrics

(the last one)

There's a payphone on the corner that they've never taken out
And it works, which nobody believes until they try
And I called my mother from it when I couldn't call about
The thing that I was doing and the reasons I won't say why

Some things you cannot say on a phone that knows your name
Some things need a box, a coin, and a road you'll never take again

The last payphone, the last payphone, on the corner in the rain
Where you can say a thing out loud and put it down and walk
The last payphone, the last payphone, and I'll be back again
When the thing gets big enough that I can't do it on a walk

My mother knew. Of course she knew. She always knows.
She said "call me from the house next time." And that's how it goes.

The last payphone, the last payphone, on the corner in the rain
Where you can say a thing out loud and put it down and walk
The last payphone, the last payphone, and I'll be back again
When the thing gets big enough that I can't do it on a walk

(call me from the house)
