The telephone (from the Greek: τῆλε, tēle, "far" and φωνή, phōnē, "voice"), colloquially referred to as a phone, is a telecommunications device that transmits and receives sounds, usually the human voice. Telephones are a point-to-point communication system whose most basic function is to allow two people separated by large distances to talk to each other. Developed in the mid-1870s by Alexander Graham Bell and others, the telephone has long been considered indispensable to businesses, households and governments, is now one of the most common appliances in the developed world. The word "telephone" has been adapted to many languages and is now recognized around the world.
All modern telephones have a microphone to speak into, an earphone (or 'speaker') which reproduces the voice of the other person, a ringer which makes a sound to alert the owner when a call is coming in, and a keypad (or on older phones a telephone dial) to enter the telephone number of the telephone to be called. The microphone and earphone are usually built into a handset which is held up to the face to talk. The keypad may be part of the handset or of a base unit to which the handset would be connected. A landline telephone is connected by a pair of wires to the telephone network, while a mobile phone (also called a cell phone) is portable and communicates with the telephone network by radio. A cordless telephone has a portable handset which communicates by radio with a base station connected by wire to the telephone network, and can only be used within a limited range of the base station.

Excuse me can someone help me
I've misplaced my love
And she used to talk with her own mouth
But now her own mouth is sewn shut
Forgive me I am lonely
Lonely for her touch
Now I used to be the one thing she needs
But now I'm not good enough
Please help me

We lost our connection
Operator
Where's our communication?
Operator
I am in love, all alone, you know
Cause she's just always talking on the phone
Lies, lies, pretty lies
They make no sense to me
Now I'm convinced that nobody's ever honest when they speak
We need something more
Cause we've been lost at sea
And we're dead and drowning in a wave of new technology
Now I'm all alone
Don't answer that phone
It's a social nightmare
And you just don't care
You just don't care
She made me laugh
Oh now she makes me cry
Now I'm all alone
And I don't know why
She's just always talking
Now everybody's taking on the phone
Everybody's talking
Everybody
