No Action

Written by：Elvis Costello

I don't want to kiss you

I don't want to touch

I don't want to see you 'cause

I don't miss you that much

I'm not a telephone junkie

I told you that we were just good friends

But when I hold you like

I hold that bakelite in my hands

There's no action

There's no action

There's no action

There's no action

Ev'ry time I phone you

I just want to put you down

He's got the keys to the car they are

The keys to the kingdom

He's got ev'rything you need

It's a shame that he didn't bring them

I'm not a telephone junkie

If I'm inserting my coin

I'm doing just fine

And the things in my head start hurtin' my mind

And I think about the way things used to be

Knowing you're with him is driving me crazy

Sometimes I phone you when

I know you're not lonely

But I always disconnect it in time

There's no action

There's no action

There's no action

There's no action

Ev'ry time I phone you

I just want to put you

Ev'ry time I phone you

I just want to put you

Ev'ry time I phone you

I just want to put you down

There's no action

There's no action

There's no action

Ev'ry time I phone you

I just want to put you down
