Anonymous Caller

calling anonymous caller,
like a songwriter
never getting the credit

i suppose thats the point
nobody knows you

i called to ask you,

what did you call for

maybe a tip
or a complaint perhaps

either way, did it matter
who would think differently
if we all knew your name

why so secret
anonymous friend, or maybe foe

what were you possibly giving up
when you picked up your phone
that you couldnt give up your name

because didn't you know
that we don't need your name
to know who is so discreet

so i just wanted to call
to ask you why and let you know
that this is anonymous

if i were you
i would be wondering why.....
