Mummy´s on the phone
Lyrics: Franz Xaver Grömmer / Jo Schulz
Music: Franz Xaver Grömmer


I like walking in the green grass
three minutes after the rain
I put Barbie and a monster
on a miniature train
without Ken

I like sleeping in a high bed
dreaming to be Jesse James
wearing a colt loaded with Coke
to play his horrible games

But the window gleams like diamonds
on the table sits the sun
two cups of coffee dance a square-dance
´cos Mummy´s on the phone

In the sky a steaming aeroplane
the grown-ups call it contrail
I wonder why they light a fire
in the summersun

But the window gleams like diamonds
I own the tooth of a shark, a couple of friends in the park
on the table sits the sun
I hear mummy´s voice, when it´s cold and dark
two cups of coffee dance a square-dance
I got a secret and a girl-friend in the neighborhood
´cos Mummy´s on the phone
she says she tells it to everyone, ´cos her tongue´s like a gun

But the window gleams like diamonds
on the table sits the sun
two cups of coffee dance a square-dance
´cos Mummy´s on the phone
