Telephone
Pomplamoose Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stop calling, stop calling, I don't wanna think anymore
I left my head and my heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heart

Just a second, it's my favorite song they're gonna play
And I cannot text you with a drink in my hand, ey
You should made some plans with me, you knew that I was free
And now you won't stop calling me, I'm kinda busy
Stop calling, stop calling, I don't wanna think anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor
Stop calling, stop calling, I don't wanna talk anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor

E, e, e, e, e...
Stop telephoning me
E, e, e, e, e...
I'm busy
E, e, e, e, e...
Stop telephoning me
E, e, e, e, e...
I'm busy

Stop calling, stop calling, I don't wanna think anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor
Stop calling, stop calling, I don't wanna talk anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor

Boy, the way you blowing up my phone
Won't make me leave no faster
Put my coat on faster
Leave my girls no faster
I shoulda left my phone at home
'Cause this is a disaster
Calling like a collector

Call all you want, but there's no one home
And you're not gonna reach my telephone
Call all you want, but there's no one home
And you're not gonna reach my telephone
I'm busy...

E, e, e, e, e...
Stop telephoning me
E, e, e, e, e...

Stop calling, stop calling, I don't wanna think anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor




Stop calling, stop calling, I don't wanna talk anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Pomplamoose's song Telephone speak to the frustration and annoyance that can come with someone constantly trying to call or text you, especially when you are busy and just want to enjoy the moment. The singer is at a party and just wants to dance and have fun, but their phone keeps ringing and interrupting the moment. They plead with the person on the other end to stop calling and give them some space. The repetitive nature of the chorus ("Stop calling, stop calling, I don't wanna think anymore") highlights the singer's exasperation and the need for some peace and quiet.

I’m utterly in love with how they translate the Gaga chords into something elaborate, sparkly and progressive. These guys are next-level instrumentalists.

I don't think I've ever heard a more harmonically interesting chorus!

Todd Reid

I really dig the reharm of the entire tune...it makes the original sound so blah

All those years later and I still love it with the same force as the day I heard it first in 2010❤️
