Operators Are Standing By lyrics

[Chorus]
Operators are standing by
Smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee
Bounce their shoes at the end of their feet
And wish they could go home

[Verse 1]
Operators are standing by
Poking holes in the ceiling tiles
Making jokes about their old boyfriends
And days gone by

[Verse 2]
Operators are standing by
Talking about their portrayal
On TV where an actress sits
With a headset in outer space

[Bridge]
That's enough talking
Ladies!

[Chorus]
Operators are standing by
Smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee
Pass 'round a picture of a Mobius strip
And wish they could go home
