“Telephone” is a song by American recording artist Lady Gaga from her second studio album The Fame Monster, featuring American R&B singer Beyoncé Knowles and is produced by Darkchild. Gaga originally wrote “Telephone” for Britney Spears, however plans did not go through, and Gaga recorded the song herself, with Beyoncé as the featured vocalist. The main inspiration behind the song was Gaga’s fear of suffocation. The lyrics portray the singer as preferring the dance floor, rather than answer her lover’s phone calls. Gaga explained that the telephone addressed in the lyrics of the song, is in reality a person telling her to continue working harder. Musically, the song consists of an expanded bridge, verse-rap and an epilogue where the line is disconnected. Knowles appears in the middle of the song with the verses being sung in a rapid-fire way, accompanied by double beats.
“Telephone” was appreciated by contemporary critics who frequently noted it as a stand-out track from The Fame Monster, with one critic comparing it to Gaga’s debut single “Just Dance”. Released as the second official single from the album, the song charted in a number of countries due to digital sales, following the album’s release, namely in United States, Australia, Canada, Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Sweden, Hungary and the United Kingdom. Gaga explained that the music video will be a continuation of the video for “Paparazzi”, and is also shot as a short film. She performed an acoustic rendition of “Telephone” mixed with “Dance In The Dark” at the 2010 BRIT Awards in memory of Alexander McQueen.
Lyrics for Lady Gaga feat. Beyonce – Telephone
[Lady Gaga]
Hello, hello, baby
You called, I can’t hear a thing.
I have got no service
in the club, you see, see
Wha-Wha-What did you say?
Oh, you’re breaking up on me
Sorry, I cannot hear you,
I’m kinda busy.K-kinda busy
K-kinda busy
Sorry, I cannot hear you, I’m kinda busy.Just a second,
it’s my favorite song they’re gonna play
And I cannot text you with
a drink in my hand, eh
You shoulda made some plans with me,
you knew that I was free.
And now you won’t stop calling me;
I’m kinda busy.Stop callin’, stop callin’,
I don’t wanna think anymore!
I left my hand and my heart on the dance floor.
Stop callin’, stop callin’,
I don’t wanna talk anymore!
I left my hand and my heart on the dance floor.Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh
Stop telephonin’ me!
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh
I’m busy!
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh
Stop telephonin’ me!
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, ehCan call all you want,
but there’s no one home,
and you’re not gonna reach my telephone!
Out in the club,
and I’m sippin’ that bub,
and you’re not gonna reach my telephone!Call when you want,
but there’s no one home,
and you’re not gonna reach my telephone!
Out in the club,
and I’m sippin’ that bub,
and you’re not gonna reach my telephone![Beyonce]
Boy, the way you blowin’ up my phone
won’t make me leave no faster.
Put my coat on faster,
leave my girls no faster.
I shoulda left my phone at home,
’cause this is a disaster!
Callin’ like a collector –
sorry, I cannot answer!….(Continue reading Lyrics for Lady Gaga feat. Beyonce – Telephone)

Telephone is outrageous! Barely there outfits. A trending topic on Twitter all day today. I covered it on my show. http://bit.ly/cZ2Ji4
This is an awesome song… The whole thing is great except when Beyonce jumps in an messes it up. All of it is great except for Beyonce's part.
Personally I think lady gaga uses way to much make up. She would be great even without any make up. But everybody has his own style.
this song is good exept gaga is a fucked up homosexual and omg andrew youre sooo fukiing fiit 🙂
Does anyone k ow a link or website that I can find this video without paying. Also can you make sure it’s not a really dirty website.
