She called me on the phone,
I was just sitting there all alone,
I told her I had been working and just got home,
She didn’t seem to be listening to me
Cause she just let that subject be,
Telling about the others I used to see,
Never asking about how I was getting by,
So I listened and listened with just a sigh;
I was just another place for her to phone,
She said so many words to me
I just asked myself why,
Why she’d bothered to call
When she didn’t care about me at all.

Some people just like to hear their own voices, Kitty...
maybe thats why she called...

Must have been, cause she didn’t listen to mine.

Was it a cell phone call?
I agree with Lyra

No, just a regular phone, I don’t need a cell phone, although Daddy did get me an answering machine so at least I’d know someone called.  Although I don’t care to know if she had called and it would have been just as good on the answering machine cause at least I could have deleted here.

Blue Kitty,
Two sweet, lovely, refined words:

Caller ID.

Sometimes it does feel like no one cares, I know.
