[Verse 1]

Hello! This is Dee Dee

You must be a nut

What do you want?

I'm gonna hang up!

"Please, sir, please

Just one minute

There's big trouble

And you're in it

Your wife's at the Ritz

With another guy

She's been drinkin'

We think she's pretty high

We're all scared to death

And we don't know what to do

We thought we'd better get a hold of you"


[Chorus]

Emergency

Calling Mr. Dee Dee

Pick up your phone

Emergency

Calling Mr. Dee Dee

We know you're home

Pick up your phone


[Verse 2]

She's always in trouble

Can't take any more

Put on my coat

And I'm out thе door

Lit up a cigarette

And hailed a cab

I was soaking wеt

And boiling mad

She never gives me

No damn respect

I've been good to her

If I'm not correct

Bought her a fur coat

And a pink Cadillac

Introduced her to my friends

And she stabs me in the back


[Chorus]

Emergency

Calling Mr. Dee Dee

Pick up your phone

Emergency

Calling Mr. Dee Dee

We know you're home

Pick up your phone


[Verse 3]

Now listen, Baby Doll

You've been busted!

I should have known

That you can't be trusted

That ain't your uncle

And that ain't soda pop

I'm just about

To blow my top

But I'll forgive you

You know I will

Get your coat

While I pay the bill

Next time, go shopping

If you want a thrill

Now it's time

For you to chill


[Chorus]

Emergency

Calling Mr. Dee Dee

Pick up your phone

Emergency

Calling Mr. Dee Dee

We know you're home

Pick up your phone

Emergency

Calling Mr. Dee Dee

Pick up your phone

Emergency

Calling Mr. Dee Dee

We know you're home

Pick up your phone
