Phonebook

Does hell  have a phone number?                              
My girl friend went to hell ,
but I need her here today.
My legs hurts and I fell down;
I need her right away.

Phonebook, can you tell me
how to find her in this book?
Is hell in the red part?
I don't know where to look.

I think my rival needs her too,
at night I hear him cry out so load.
I hear him whisper her name all the time,
but I really don't know why.

Maybe if I call her,
she will hurry home to me.
Is hell very far away?
Is it across the ocean?

She's been gone a long, long time-
she needs to come home now!
I really need to reach her.
I simply don't know how.

Help me find the number, please.
Is it listed under "hell"?
I can't read these big, big words;
I am only a kid.

I'm sorry, phonebook,
I didn't mean to make you cry.
Is your legs hurting too--
or is there something in your mind?

If I call my friends
maybe they might know.
Daddy said when we need help
asking friends is the best option.

I found the number of my best friend
Thank you, phonebook
I'll give him a call.
Hopefully hes not in hell too.
