Il testo della Calling america

(somebody)
Told her that there was a place like heaven
Across the water on a 747
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world

And pretty soon she's really got the notion
Of flying out across the big blue ocean
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world
(in a modern world)

Talk is cheap on satellite
But all i get is
(static)
Information, i'm still here
Re-dial on automatic

Calling america
(can't get a message through)
Calling america
(that's what she said to do)
Calling america
(that's where she has to be)
Calling america
(she left a number for me)
Calling america

But i'm just talking to a satellite
Twenty thousand miles up in the sky each night
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world

All i had to do was pick up the phone
I'm out in space, trying to talk to someone
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world
(in a modern world)

She left a number i could call
But no one's there, no one at all
There must be something going wrong
That number just rings on and on

Calling america
(can't get a message through)
Calling america
(that's what she said to do)
Calling america
(that's where she has to be)
Calling america
(she left a number for me)
Calling america

Said she'd call when she'd been gone a while
Guess she's missing me across the miles
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world

Calling america
(can't get a message through)
Calling america
(that's what she said to do)
Calling america
(that's where she has to be)
Calling america
(she left a number for me)

Calling america
Calling america
Calling america
