Operator
LÃ¥psley Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My hearts been picked up way too many times
Wrong numbers fill my blood watch the spinning dials

You can measure my pressure but I'll blow up in a second
You can measure my pressure but I'll blow up in a second
Don't put me on hold please
Don't put me on hold please
Don't put me on hold please
Fly here and hold me

He doesn't call me so put me through operator
Maybe I'll leave him and fall in love with you operator
My baby doesn't call me so put me through operator
So tell me should I leave him and fall in love with you operator

The miles keep adding up voicemails of frustration
Long-distance takes it's toll give me information

You can measure my pressure but I'll blow up in a second
You can measure my pressure but I'll blow up in a second

He doesn't call me so put me through operator
Maybe I'll leave him and fall in love with you operator
My baby doesn't call me so put me through operator
So tell me should I leave him and fall in love with you operator

It's like I've got a broken trust
It's like I've got a broken trust and I need a kick-start
It's like I've got a broken trust
It's like I've got a broken trust and I need a kick-start




Broken trust, broken trust
Broken trust, broken trust

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Operator" by Låpsley explore the feeling of frustration and disappointment in a relationship where communication is lacking. The first verse sets the tone by describing the singer's heart being picked up way too many times, a metaphor for the constant letdowns and disappointments. The line "Wrong numbers fill my blood watch the spinning dials" adds to the image of being lost and disconnected. The second verse introduces the idea of long-distance, which adds to the strain on the relationship. The repeated phrase "You can measure my pressure but I'll blow up in a second" speaks to the singer's pent-up frustration and anger. The chorus of the song brings in the idea of an operator, someone who can connect the singer to someone else. The bridge of the song describes a "broken trust," which could refer to the trust with her partner or trust in communication in general, leading her to feel like she needs a "kick-start" to move on.
