Subject: RE: Lyr Req: 'Telephone' (Scandinavian Dialect)
Vell I got a wife and it's kinda funny she's an old sourpuss and I call her honey,
Everytime I come home there she is on the telephone,She talk about this and she talk about that,
She always sounds like her head is fat,
Got a voice like an old trombone on the telephone.
Telephone oh yakkity yak on the telephone all the time
What a heck of a life when you got a wife on the telephone.

.........like when (someone) got drunk and landed in jail
Got the whole town mad with he great big yap
We'd all be happy if she closed her trap
You can't get a dial tone on our telephone
telephone oh yakkity yak...

Sorry but that line just went away. It's been too many years.
I believe the song on the other side of that record was one about three Suedes, farm hands who went to the city and got mixed up with some shady women. I know all of that one if you want it.
