          D                            G
When my phone goes off at work I look like the biggest jerk
         C                      Eb
Total strangers wanna slap me around
           D                         G
When it's ringin' on the terrace my neighbors get embarrassed
         C
They're beggin' me to move outta town

Well, it made my wife so sick, she smashed my iPhone with a brick

But I had it fixed, and now it's just fine
        D                                G
It's a pain
I sure don't need it, and I probably should delete it
        C
But for me that would be crossin' the line
         F               C            F
'Cause I hate to waste a buck ninety nine

Hey
I paid good money for this
