The Phone Call - The Pretenders

This is a mercy mission

From a faceless messenger

Who don’t wanna see you hit

Here’s the word, listen to it

Somebody that you used to know

Is back in town you better go

This is a mercy mission

A voice you’ll never hear again

From a south side call box

Winged demons are the hardest to outfox

Same one you lost on the run

Gonna show you it ain’t no fun

You better get out of town

You’re gonna get hit

I didn’t mean to get you

This is a mercy mission

You’ll find your schedule underneath the door

All of the arrangements have been made

Major expenses have been paid as you know

Get the last details

Gonna parcel the mail
