Wired world
Why don't you leave my head alone
(SPOKEN: Please hang up now)
Wired world
Leave my head alone
I'm goin' way out in the country
I'm gonna leave my phone at home

I got a snail-mail box, an e-mail bay,
Telephone lines running' every which way
My fax machine is broken
Computer is obsolete
Caller ID's a dinosaur
And I bought it all just last week

Wired world
Leave my head alone
You know the next thing they'll be dealin'
Is a brain implant telephone

(STOP TIME RIFF)
If you want an outside line
All you got to do is cough
If you make your left eye jump
You can turn call-waiting off
I saw a woman rapping
As she walked the street alone
The girl was either crazy
Or talking on the phone

Wired world
Won't you leave my head alone
I'm goin' way up in the country
And I'm gonna leave all these phones at home.

(BRIDGE)
Well I was witness to when progress
Hitched a ride with a rocket
Things are going so fast
Can't nobody stop it
A wire widow weeps
Her life's become a blur
See her husbands on the phone
talkin' to everyone but her

Wired world
Leave my head alone
When I go to bed at night
All I hear is my dial-tone

Wired world
Leave my head alone (2X'S)
When I go to bed at night all I hear is a dial tone
I'm going way up in the country
Man I'm gonna leave these phones at home
The next thing they'll be dealin'
Brain implant telephone
