Don't take ma bell away from me I've gotten used to monopoly When they divest then i'll be blue Yes breaking up is hard on you
Remember when you'd make a call And you'd get through no sweat at all Now we wait the whole night through Cause breaking up is hard on you
They say that breaking up is hard to do And so they put the screws to you Don't say it's fate my friend Including breaking up They're also jacking up the rates again
[AT&T] don't say goodbye Don't wanna use no mci You'll pay bills out the wazoo Cause breaking up is hard on you ...
