Man In A Garage Lyrics
this contract in my hand,
before the day is out,
slide over slide over
slide over
i just dialed this number,
would you help me help me please,
i just dialed this number with a phonebook on my knees
three meetings in a row,
i´s dotted and t´s will cross,
slide over slide over
slide over
i just dialed this number,
would you help me help me please,
i just dialed this number with a phonebook on my knees,
that´s right,
well please hold on, i´m a man in a garage i´m on my way to work
well just hold on, i´m a man in a garage and i´m on my way to work,
my way to work
i just dialed this number,
would you help me help me please,
i just dialed this number with a phonebook on my knees,
that´s right,
well please hold on, i´m a man in a garage i´m on my way to work
well just hold on, i´m a man in a garage and i´m on my way to work, my way to
work
before the day is out,
slide over slide over
slide over
would you help me help me please,
i just dialed this number with a phonebook on my knees
i´s dotted and t´s will cross,
slide over slide over
slide over
would you help me help me please,
i just dialed this number with a phonebook on my knees,
that´s right,
my way to work
would you help me help me please,
i just dialed this number with a phonebook on my knees,
that´s right,

As far as I know, this songs echoes a quite dramatic past memory from the life of the vocalist (John Matthias). Actually, on his way to work, he answered an anonymous phonecall from a girl who asked for help and he apparently couldn't do anything for her.
northern, where did you get that information? That's fascinating. I thought this was an abstract song about a man who is making a living doing something he thinks is wrong and is having a crisis of conscience.... sort of like the assassin who calls a hotline for help. But your explanation makes a lot more sense.
