Ooh, ah, ah
Ooh, ah, ah

Always been busy with nothin' to do
Got a bottle of a somethin' that I'm dyin' to lose
Swallow my pride, keep the phone on mute
Till you call, why'd you call?
Caught between you and the telephone jack
Damn it, right when I was getting my life on track
You saw an opportunity to come running back
And the walls start to fall

It's a stain that I'll never get out
It's a stain, the kind they warn you about
It's so vain to be calling the house
It's a stain that I can't get out, oh, no

Ooh, ah, ah
Ooh, ah, ah

I've been gettin' out the house, even better, my head
Had a gap tooth smile, rolling 'round in my bed
And to top it all off, I lost all my regrets
Standing tall, please don't call
Well, I'm sorry that it didn't work out with your man
But there's nothin' fun in feeling like a backup plan
Just write a few songs, put a pen in your hand
That worked for me, babe (hey)

It's a stain that I'll never get out
It's a stain, the kind they warn you about
It's so vain to be calling the house
It's a stain that I can't get out, oh, no

Ooh, ah, ah
Ooh, ah, ah

It's a stain that I'll never get out
It's a shame, oh, mama warned me about the day
That you'd be coming around, it's a stain, hey, hey

It's a stain that I'll never get out
It's a stain, the kind they warn you about
It's so vain to be calling the house
It's a stain that I can't get out, oh, no

Ooh, ah, ah (can't get out)
Ooh, ah, ah (mm, mm)
Ooh, ah, ah (oh)
Ooh
