The Lyrics
No link for this one because I doubt if there is anyone who doesn't know this old chestnut. One can add as many verses as desired. In my case I just did it till I got tired.
DAMN PHONES
refrain:
Damn phones, damn phones, dem cellphones
Damn phones, damn phones, dem i-phones
Damn phones, damn phones, dem smartphones
Now text the words of l'amour
The boy's phone's connected to the girl's phone
And the girl's phone's connected to the boy's phone
And the boy's phone's connected to her 'friend's' phone
Now text the word on the score
They both are connected to the hormone
The girls are connected to the pheromone
And the boys are connected to testosterone
And anticipations soar
The boy's phone's connected to the boy's phone
And the girl's phone's connected to the girl's phone
The boys and girls connected to the strange moan
I ain't gonna tell you no more
The cellphone's connected to the earphone
The i-phone's connected to the bank loan
The smartphone's connected to the ringtone
Now throw it across the floor
All these connections make me groan
Feel like I'm living in a dead zone
Think I'll go and get an ice-cream cone
At last! A real knock on the door!
'Excuse me sir, you wanna buy a landphone?
Easy terms, installed inside your own home?
Never again will you be so 'lone
Like you must have been before.'
Well my armbone's connected to my wristbone
And my wristbone's connected to my knucklebone
My knucklebone connected with his nosebone
And I left him covered in gore.
refrain:
Damn phones, damn phones, dem cellphones
Damn phones, damn phones, dem i-phones
Damn phones, damn phones, dem smartphones
Now text the words of l'amour
The boy's phone's connected to the girl's phone
And the girl's phone's connected to the boy's phone
And the boy's phone's connected to her 'friend's' phone
Now text the word on the score
They both are connected to the hormone
The girls are connected to the pheromone
And the boys are connected to testosterone
And anticipations soar
The boy's phone's connected to the boy's phone
And the girl's phone's connected to the girl's phone
The boys and girls connected to the strange moan
I ain't gonna tell you no more
The cellphone's connected to the earphone
The i-phone's connected to the bank loan
The smartphone's connected to the ringtone
Now throw it across the floor
All these connections make me groan
Feel like I'm living in a dead zone
Think I'll go and get an ice-cream cone
At last! A real knock on the door!
'Excuse me sir, you wanna buy a landphone?
Easy terms, installed inside your own home?
Never again will you be so 'lone
Like you must have been before.'
Well my armbone's connected to my wristbone
And my wristbone's connected to my knucklebone
My knucklebone connected with his nosebone
And I left him covered in gore.

Some clever phrases, rhymes, and lines, here..like the hormone stanza...good work
Thanks AFW, there's a limit to what you can achieve with this, the OS is so repetitive.
And your phone bills going through the roof
