He said to me tonight
"Why stay, they only tell you lies"
Is it a dream?
My conscience tells me he's just make believe
Don't be a fool for a boy, it's only common sense
Use your head, or you'll see trouble overhead

It's over when the phone stops ringing
He's never, ever going to call, no no no-o
It's over when the phone stops ringing
He's done this kind of thing to girls before

I tried to memorize
Just how he kissed me when he said goodnight
So sincere
He said, "You'll see I'll be a millionaire"
My friends like to laugh
They think it's oh, so cute
They call him names
They act like it's all a game

It's over when the phone stops ringing
He's never, ever going to call, no no no-o
It's over when the phone stops ringing
He's done this kind of thing to girls before

Why do they have to be so right all the time?
He was a special kind of shy
But he said he'd call and now it's been two days
Now all I hear is, "I told you so..."

It's over when the phone stops ringing
He's never, ever going to call, no no no-o
It's over when the phone stops ringing
He's done this kind of thing to girls before

This song was also performed by Eighth Wonder in 1987.
