Call Box 1-2-3 Lyrics

    I press the buttons now
    Voice keeps poppin' on the call box out
    Mop-man, do you receive?
    Ten-four, i gotta pull out
    I got an eta, five-thirty on the dot
    A little bit later, it'll thicken the plot

    Chorus:
    They always tell me what's not is not
    I just gotta get that 1-2-3
    It's funny how these things always happen to me
    I just gotta get that 1-2-3



    Now, by the force of circumstance
    And by the belt that holds up my pants
    I'm held responsible
    For this idea that never had a chance
    When they call out the guard tonight
    He'll cut the alarm and switch off the light


    Chorus:
    I get a funny feeling that wrong is right
    I just gotta get that 1-2-3
    It's funny how these things always happen to me
    I just gotta get that 1-2-3



    1 2 3
    A b c
    Like you and me
    Like 1 2 3
    1 2 3
    1-2-3
    A b c
    1-2-3
    1 2 3
    1-2-3
    It's a combination...


    I press the buttons nowwww!


    I press the buttons now
    Voice keeps poppin' on the call box out
    Mop-man, do you receive?
    Ten-four, i gotta pull out
    I got an eta, five-thirty on the dot
    A little bit later, it'll thicken the plot


    Chorus:
    They always tell me what's not is not
    I just gotta get that 1-2-3
    It's funny how these things always happen to me
    I guess i gotta get that 1-2-3



    1 2 3
    A b c
    Like you and me
    Like 1 2 3
    Not is not, not is not!
    Not is not, not is not...
