David Yazbek, Laura Benanti - Model Behavior lyrics

You have twenty-seven messages

Pepa? Pepa, it's me are you there? Call me

Hi, it's me again
Candela where are you? Just call me
When you get this okay? Okay

Pepa? Pepa?!

Pepa, it's me again
Why aren't you picking up the phone?
It's like my brain is gonna melt
If I don't talk to you

I've got a problem in the shower
And I've only got a minute
‘Cause the problem in the shower
Is this guy that I've been dating named Malik

He's… what's the word? Swarthy


Like a desert sheik and he's been here in my
Apartment for about a week

I met him down at Cafe Sombra
And I know you think I'm overly romantic
But, you wouldn't believe the
Connection we had
Like immediately I was ready for him to
Meet my mom

Like I could feel my heart exploding
Like some kind of bomb
Which is ironic because actually I think
He literally has some kind of

Anyway, Grandpa
Happy birthday say hello to Grandma and
Be sure to take your

That was him!

I may be jumping to conclusions
God I hope I am
He thinks I'm thin and he's got
Shoulders like Jean-Claude Van Damme

Listen, call me when you hear this
I'll be here for half an hour call me back!

Pepa? Are you there? Are you there? Are you
Okay, you're not there but we need to talk
My stomach's aching like I
Swallowed some enormous rock

I'm at the phone booth on the corner
And I've only got a minute ‘cause
I'm running out of change
'Cause, I've been lending all
My money to Malik

God knows with men I'm not
Exactly on a lucky streak
But this one really is a mess
I think I'm gonna freak

I know you say I'm an alarmist but I'm not
Remember there's that time I thought
I saw a spider?
You said "nah, it's a raisin"
But it suddenly started moving
And it crawled over and bit me on the toe

So if you're gonna stand in judgement
That's how much you know

It's a good thing I didn't eat it
But, I never would have ate it
‘Cause, I never did like raisins
So why would there be a raisin on the floor?

So when you hear this call me back
I'll wait a little more
I'll be at seven-seven-three

Damn, they scratched out the
Number… And misspelled "vagina"

All right I'm hanging up, I'll call you back!

Pepa
Okay, I'm trying you again, it's afternoon
It's like my eyes are gonna pop
If I don't get you soon

I'm at the studio, which sucks
Because I'm having trouble working
'Cause the only thing I think about's
This crazy situation with Malik

I don't know what I'm gonna do
If you and I don't speak

I know you think I'm just a drama queen
But actually I'm practical and damn it
I'm a model so of course I feel things
Deeper than most people typically do

And anyway I think my life
May be in danger too
You won't believe what he's
Got hidden in the

Oh, Fernando's working here! He's lost a
Lot of weight and, wow
He got that thing removed! He just looks

Pepa marcos

He says hello
And now he's telling me we're shooting
So I've gotta go

It's some big deal ad campaign
I don't know what it's for
They've got me posing with
A melon and a matador

Some kind of metaphor

Call me back!

Pepa, it's eight
I don't know why you're treating me like this

Pepa, it's almost ten o'clock
You really are a terrible friend

Pepa, I'm sorry
I've never felt so frightened and alone
I'm like a helpless little kitten up a

HEY! I'M ON THE fuckING PHONE!

Please, call me back

Pepa, it's midnight are you screening?

It's three am you have to call me!

… would never do this to you!
What kind of a friend

What was the name of that cheese that I like?

Pepa? Pepa, sweetheart listen
I need to tell you

Tape is full end of messages

Pepa
Okay, now even your machine's ignoring me
Listen, Pepa, i know you think I'm needy
But, you've got to see

I'm feeling kind of woozy
I've been crying for an hour
And my boyfriend has an Uzi
And he doesn't clean the shower

And I don't know where you are
I don't know where I am
I'm halfway up a tree and completely in a jam

I'm out here in the desert
And nobody gives a damn

Pepa? Pepa! Pepa… call me back!
