Lyrics
Press one now, inaudible
Caller presses one, message is inaudible
Um, hey I just wanted to let you know
Caller informs about the absence of pickled ginger
We are all out of pickled ginger
Suggests an alternative if the listener desires something else
Um, if you wanted something else
Apology for unavailability, provides a callback number
Uh give me a call at 3- we're sorry
Apology message for reaching a disconnected or out-of-service number
You have reached a number that has been
Confirmation of disconnection or out-of-service status
Disconnected or is no longer in service
Empty line, possibly indicating a pause or transition
We've been driving all night
Narrator mentions driving throughout the night
Couldn't see with my head lights on
Visibility challenge while driving with headlights on
I know something ain't right
Sense of unease or suspicion about a situation
When she don't have to stay so long
Observation that someone doesn't need to stay for long
Tryna bend into to the sun, progress
Desire for progress, reaching towards the sun
How you float into the shade, weightless
Floating into the shade, feeling weightless
When you call baby, it's what you don't say
Highlighting the significance of what is unsaid in a phone call
Baby when you call
Repetition of the importance of the unspoken in a call
(call) it's what you don't say
Reiteration of the impact of unspoken words in a call
I'm puttin' this thing right
Expressing self-reliance in fixing a situation
Back together myself
Taking personal responsibility for fixing something
And I'm puttin' this thing
Continuation of the theme of self-reliance
Right back together myself, but now
Recognition of the current state of self-repair efforts
I'm puttin' this thing right
Reiteration of the narrator's role in self-repair
Back together myself
Reaffirmation of personal responsibility for fixing things
I'm puttin' this thing right back
Continuation of the theme of self-repair
Together myself but now
Final declaration of personal responsibility for fixing things
