    Is that my mother on the phone?
    The telephone is ringing, why wont she leave me alone?

    Every girl I go out with, becomes my mother again.
    Every girl I go out with, becomes my mother again.

    WHAT IS THE NAME OF THAT SONG AND WHO WROTE IT????
    IT has been running through my head.
    I keep thinking it is Pink Floyd, but I cannot find it anywhere.

    Well, the telephone is ringing

    Telephone is ringing
    Is that my mother on the phone?
    The telephone is screaming
    Won't she leave me alone
    The telephone is ringing
    Is that my mother on the phone?
    Well, every girl that I go out with
    Becomes my mother in the end
    Every girl I go out with
    Becomes my mother in the end
    Well, I hear Mother calling
    But I don't need her as a friend
    Oh, oh, Mother
    Oh, Mother, dear, please listen
    And don't devour me
    Oh, Mother, dear, please listen
    And don't devour me
    Oh, women, please have mercy
    Let this poor boy be
    Oh, Mother, dear, please listen
    And don't devour me

    Hit the link at the very bottom of this page that
    just says "message boards" and it's pretty
    self-evident from there.

    I read a review in RS and they said it was the
    best record of the year (5 stars). I am intrigued
    to hear it, but I don't know of any stations that
    play Springsteen. I don't listen to him anyway,
    so I don't want to buy it unless it's that damn
    good.
