You think that we connect
That the chemistry's correct
Your words walk right through my ears
Presuming I like what I hear
And now I'm stuck in the web
You're spinning
You got me for your prey...

Sorry I'm not home right now
I'm walking into spiderwebs
So leave a message
And I'll call you back
A likely story, but leave a message
And I'll call you back

You're intruding on what's mine
Yeah and you're taking up my time
Don't have the courage inside me
To tell you please let me be

Communication, a telephonic invasion
I'm planning my escape

Sorry I'm not home right now
I'm walking into spiderwebs
So leave a message
And I'll call you back
A likely story, but leave a message
And I'll call you back

And it's all your fault
I screen my phone calls
No matter who calls
I gotta screen my phone calls

Now it's gone too deep (now it's gone too deep)
You wake me in my sleep (wake me in my sleep)
My dreams become nightmares (dreams become nightmares)
'Cause you're ringing in my ears (ringing in my)

Sorry I'm not home right now
I'm walking into spiderwebs
So leave a message
And I'll call you back
A likely story, but leave a message
And I'll call you back

And it's all your fault
I screen my phone calls
No matter matter matter matter who calls
I gotta screen my phone calls

Ooh spiderwebs
Leave a message and I'll call you back
I'm walking into spiderwebs
So leave a message and I'll call you back
It's all your fault
I screen my phone calls
No matter matter matter who calls
I gotta screen my phone calls
It's all your fault
It's all your fault
No matter who calls
No matter who calls

I'm walking into spiderwebs
So leave a message and I'll call you back
I'm walking into spiderwebs
Leave a message and I'll call you back...

Oh it's all your fault
No matter who calls
I gotta screen my phone calls
It's all your fault
No matter matter matter who calls
I screen my phone calls
I'm walking into spiderwebs
Leave a message and I'll call you back

    My Interpretation:Well, surely is about somebody who can't get a hint and keep calling the speaker in the middle of the night in hopes of, I believe, pursuing a relationship with "her".

    General Comment:If Frodo Baggins had an answering machine, this would've been a good song clip for it while he was in Shelob's lair:

    "Sorry I'm not home right now
    I'm walking into spiderwebs
    So leave a message
    And I'll call you back"

    Haha

    General Comment:Gwen might be an enabler and has a hard time being in control of what she wants from her relationships :p

    I've been stalked before and its because I can't punch guys in the face so they can get the message loud and clear....I'm too nice.

    I love this song- I went into a HMV looking for this song before they got popular and the staff had no idea who No Doubt was.
    sigh* time flys

    General Comment:This song is about someone stalking her and randomly calling in the middle of the night. She said it herself in the youtube video of seven days of no doubt.

    General Comment:This song is about how Gwen Stefani is old and has a landline phone and doesn't get "the kids with their cellular doodads".
