When the dial tones are buzzing
My heart starts pumping, hold on, hold on
When I hear the phone ringing
Just waiting for your voice [bad word] on [bad word] on

But when the line is busy and my ear gets so hot
I can't stand to but the waiting is not
You say you put me through
But you keep me holding on for so long, so long

And I say ooh, ooh, ooh

I'm on hold for you
(I hear that music playing)
I keep pushing number one and two
(Still that music's playing)

Operator just put me through
(I hear that music)
For an hour or two on hold for you

I'm on hold for you
(I hear that music playing)
I keep pushing number one and two
(Still that music's playing)

Operator just put me through
(I hear that music)
For an hour or two on hold for you

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
For an hour or two, on hold for you

I'm on hold for you
(I hear that music playing)
I keep pushing number one and two
(Still that music's playing)

Operator just put me through
(I hear that music)
For an hour or two on hold for you

I'm on hold for you
(I hear that music playing)
I keep pushing number one and two
(Still that music's playing)

Operator just put me through
(I hear that music)
For an hour or two on hold for you
