1. CALLING AMERICA

Somebody told her that there was a place like heaven
Across the water on a 747
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world

And pretty soon she's really got the notion
Of flying out across the big blue ocean
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world

Talk is cheap on satellite
But all I get is static information
I'm still here re-dial on automatic

(Chorus)
Calling America (can't get a message through)
Calling America (that's what she said to do)
Calling America (that's where she has to be)
Calling America (she left a number for me)
Calling America

But I'm just talking to a satellite
Twenty thousand miles up in the sky each night
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world

All I had to do was pick up the phone
I'm out in space, trying to talk to someone
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world

She left a number I could call
But no one's there, no one at all
There must be something going wrong
That number just rings on and on

(Chorus)

Said she'd call when she'd been gone a while
Guess she's missing me across the miles
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world

(Chorus)


2. CAUGHT IN A TRAP

Sometimes you get caught in a trap and you don't know it
Sometimes it's better to get out before you blow it
Some people never learn they keep on falling
You can never get out if you keep on stalling.

Then you get caught in a trap, caught in dead end
Caught in a trap with nowhere to run
Then you get caught in a trap, caught in dead end
Nowhere to turn, but it can't go on.

Caught in a trap.

Sometimes you got to know where to run for cover
Sometimes you're better out 'till the heat is over.

Or you get caught in a trap, caught in dead end
Caught in a trap with nowhere to run
Then you get caught in a trap, caught in dead end
Nowhere to turn, but it can't go on.

Caught in a trap.

Don't know how it happens, but then it's too late
Then you gotta move on the times you contemplate.

'Cause you got caught in a trap, caught in dead end
Caught in a trap with nowhere to run
Then you got caught in a trap, caught in dead end
Nowhere to turn, but it can't go on.

Caught in a trap, caught in dead end
Caught in a trap with nowhere to run
Caught in a trap, caught in dead end
Nowhere to turn, but it can't go on.

Caught in a trap...
