I called this number three times already today But I, I got scared, I put It back in place, I put my phone back in place. I still don't know if I should have called up. Look, just tell me why don't ya if I'm out of place. 'Cause here's your chance to make me feel awkward And wish that I had never even called up this place. I saw you though today walk by with hippie Johnny. I had to call up and say how I want to take his place. So this phone call today concerns hippie Johnny. He's always stoned, he's never straight. I saw you today, you know, walk by with hippie Johnny. Look, I had to call up and say, I want to take his place. See he's stoned, hippie Johnny. Now get this, I'm straight and I want to take his place. Now look, I like him too, I like hippie Johnny. But I'm straight and I want to take his place. I said, I'm straight I said, I'm straight I'm proud to say Well I'm straight and I want to take his place. Now I've watched you walk around here. I've watched you meet these boyfriends, I know, and you tell me how they're deep. Look but, if these guys, if they're really so great, tell me, why can't they at least take this place and take it straight? Why always stoned, like hippie Johnny is? I'm straight and I want to take his place. Oh I'm certainly not stoned, like hippie Johnny is. I'm straight and I want to take his place. I said, I'm straight I said, I'm straight I'm I'm straight and I want to take his place All right you Modern Lovers what do you say? (I'm straight!) Tell the world now (I'm straight!) I said (I'm straight!) Yeah I'm straight and I want to take his place.
