lyrics

VERSE 1:
You can call me a liar
You can call me cheap
You can call me a swindler
You can call me a creep

You can call me ugly
You can call me fat
Do what you want
But don't call me that

VERSE 2.:
You can call me a cheater
in the game of love
And you can tell me all the things
That you think I'm full of

Go ahead: tell my friends
I'm a sleazy rat
Do what you please, but please
Don't call me that

CHORUS:
You can call me anything that you want
You can call me anything that you want
You can call me anything that you want
But don't call me that
Don't call me collect

VERSE 3:
You can smear my good name
On the Fox Evening News
You can ruin me for life
Hey! I won't sing the blues

But no matter the charges
Just one thing I plea:
Don't tell an operator
To reverse them on me

CHORUS:
You can call me anything that you want
You can call me anything that you want
You can call me anything that you want
But don't call me that
Don't call me collect

CODA:
You can call me anything that you want
You really can!
You can call me anything that you want
That's okay!
You can call me anything that you want
I Don't mind!
You can call me anything that you want
Go ahead!
You can call me anything that you want
"Call me!"
You can call me anything that you want
You can call me anything that you want
[repeat and fade]
