Lady Gaga

Lyrics

[Intro: Lady Gaga]
Hello, hello, baby, you called? I can't hear a thing
I have got no service in the club, you say, say? (Say)
Wha-wha-what did you say, huh? You're breakin' up on me
Sorry, I cannot hear you, I'm kinda busy (I'm kinda busy)
K-kinda busy (I'm kinda busy), k-kinda busy (I'm kinda busy)
Sorry, I cannot hear you, I'm kinda busy

[Verse 1: Lady Gaga]
Just a second, it's my favorite song they're gonna play (Play)
And I cannot text you with a drink in my hand, eh
You should've made some plans with me, you knew that I was free
And now you won't stop callin' me, I'm kinda busy

[Chorus: Lady Gaga]
Stop callin', stop callin', I don't wanna think anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor
Stop callin', stop callin', I don't wanna talk anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor

[Post-Chorus: Lady Gaga]
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh
Stop telephonin' me
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh (Stop telephonin' me)
I'm busy
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh (I'm busy)
Stop telephonin' me
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh (Stop telephonin' me)
[Refrain: Lady Gaga]
Can call all you want but there's no one home
And you're not gonna reach my telephone (No)
Out in the club and I'm sippin' that bub
And you're not gonna reach my telephone (No)
Can call all you want but there's no one home
And you're not gonna reach my telephone
Out in the club and I'm sippin' that bub
And you're not gonna reach my telephone
[Verse 2: Beyoncé]
Boy, the way you blowin' up my phone
Won't make me leave no faster (Pu-put)
Put my coat on faster (Le-leave)
Leave my girls no faster
I should've left my phone at home
'Cause this is a disaster
Callin' like a collector
Sorry, I cannot answer

[Bridge: Lady Gaga, Beyoncé, Both]
It's not that I don't like you, I'm just at a party
And I am sick and tired of my phone r-ringin'
Sometimes I feel like I live in GrandCentral S-Station (Station)
Tonight I'm not takin' no calls, 'cause I'll be dancin' (Dancin')
'Cause tonight I'm dancin' ('Cause I'll be dancin'; dancin')
'Cause tonight I'm dancin' ('Cause I'll be dancin')
'Cause tonight I'm dancin'
Tonight I'm not takin' no calls, 'cause I'll be dancin'
[Chorus: All, Lady Gaga]
Stop callin', stop callin', I don't wanna think anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor
Stop callin', stop callin', I don't wanna talk anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor
Stop callin', stop callin', I don't wanna think anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor
Stop callin', stop callin', I don't wanna talk anymore
I left my head and my heart on the dance floor

[Post-Chorus: Lady Gaga, Beyoncé]
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh (Stop telephonin' me)
Stop telephonin' me
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh (I'm busy)
I'm busy
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh (Stop telephonin' me)
Stop telephonin' me, eh, eh eh, eh, eh
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh (I'm busy)

[Refrain: Lady Gaga]
Can call all you want but there's no one home
And you're not gonna reach my telephone
'Cause I'm out in the club and I'm sippin' that bub
And you're not gonna reach my telephone
Can call all you want but there's no one home
And you're not gonna reach my telephone
'Cause I'm out in the club and I'm sippin' that bub
And you're not gonna reach my telephone
[Outro: Lady Gaga, Darkchild]
(D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-Darkchild)
My telephone, m-m-my telephone
'Cause I'm out in the club and I'm sippin' that bub
And you're not gonna reach my telephone
My telephone, m-m-my telephone
'Cause I'm out in the club and I'm sippin' that bub
And you're not gonna reach my telephone
We're sorry- We're sorry
The number you have reached is not in service at this time
Please check the number or try your call again

Lady Gaga has been one of the most successful and influential artists of the past few decades. Her hit songs, outlandish fashion sense, and overall creative genius have made her a household name around the world. One of her most famous songs is “Telephone,” which was released in 2010 and featured Beyoncé. The song has been widely acclaimed for its catchy beat, clever lyrics, and memorable music video, which features a number of Hollywood stars.

About Telephone

“Telephone” was actually written by Lady Gaga for Britney Spears’ Circus album, but Spears turned it down. Gaga loved the song so much that she decided to record it herself. She later invited Beyoncé to collaborate with her on the track, and the two created what would become one of the most famous duets in pop music history. The song is a high-energy dance track that showcases Gaga’s and Beyonce’s powerful voices.

The lyrics of “Telephone” are about being unable to escape from someone’s constant phone calls. Gaga has said that the song was inspired by her fear of suffocation. She loves her work so much that she finds it hard to take a break and simply enjoy herself. She feels like she is constantly being pulled in different directions and can never truly relax. This fear is what motivated her to write the song and to create a music video that would depict her trying to escape from a prison-like environment.

The music video for “Telephone” is an epic nine-minute production that is a sequel to Gaga's previous music video, “Paparazzi.” It was directed by Jonas Åkerlund and was heavily influenced by the work of Quentin Tarantino. The video features Gaga and Beyoncé as two women who are trying to escape from prison. Throughout the video, they engage in a number of wild and crazy antics, including poisoning a diner full of people, wearing outfits made of caution tape, and ultimately driving off into the distance in a bright yellow convertible.

The video for “Telephone” was met with widespread acclaim. It has been praised for its creativity, brilliant execution, and overall surrealism. The video features numerous celebrity cameos, including appearances by Tyrese Gibson, Jerry Stiller, and even Beyoncé’s former Destiny’s Child bandmates Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams.

“Telephone” was a massive commercial success and helped cement Gaga’s reputation as one of the most innovative and creative artists of her generation.

Conclusion

Overall, “Telephone” is an iconic pop song that has stood the test of time. It showcases the amazing talents of Lady Gaga and Beyoncé and tells a story that is both relatable and unforgettable. The song’s catchy beat and clever lyrics have made it a staple of dance clubs and parties around the world, while the music video has become an enduring classic that continues to inspire and awe viewers years after its release.
