Freddie won't pick up the phone
it doesn't matter if it rings
in the morning on the train
or at the height of boredom.
He may have made an inquiry
but I don't think that he exists.
Wouldn't matter if he did
you won't catch Freddie on this phone.
I've gotten in the habit of
answering my phone like an asshole.
Now if you want to speak to Freddie
I've got the hang of saying no.
Freddie's hanging next to my head
all the time.
I used to think I could ignore him
if I tried.
If I could leave my room without a pocket
I'd be outside.
But I am only ever honest
on the line.
