Sixx:A.M. - Courtesy Call Lyrics






[Dialtone, knocking]
[Female voice:] Housekeeping...
[Knocking]
[Female:] Hello, housekeeping?
[Tries, door, knocking]
[Female:] Hello?

Well you found me, but I don't know
Why you wanna save me...
Well, God is great and God is good
But God didn't help me when he could
And life dances so slowly by.

This is just a courtesy call
This is just a matter of policy
This is just an act of kindness
To let you know that your time is up
This is just a courtesy call
This is just a matter of policy
This is just an act of kindness
To let you know that your time is up

I, I can't feel anything
My arms are numb and I'm hoping
You noticed the line I left off
All that you'll find inside
Are bells and butterflies
But I'll be smiling when I die

This is just a courtesy call
This is just a matter of policy
This is just an act of kindness
To let you know that your time is up
This is just a courtesy call
This is just a matter of policy
This is just an act of kindness
To let you know that your time is up

This is just a courtesy call
This is just a matter of policy
This is just an act of kindness
To let you know that your time is up

[Knocking]
[Female:] Sir, I know you're in there; are you okay?
[Male voice:] Excuse me, ma'am, what's the problem here?
[Female:] No one answering.
[Male:] Who's in here. Hello?
[Knocking]
[Male:] Hello? Step away from the door, ma'am
[Keys jingle, LOUD blunt thump, dialtone gets louder]
[Male:] Oh Jesus Christ!
[Female:] Oh! Ooh!

This is just a courtesy call
This is just a matter of policy
This is just an act of kindness
To let you know that your time is up
This is just a courtesy call
This is just a matter of policy
This is just an act of kindness
To let you know that your time is up

This is just a courtesy call
(Why'd you want to save me?)
This is just a matter of policy
(Why'd you want to save me now?)
This is just an act of kindness
(What'd you want to do it for?)
To let you know that your time is up
This is just a courtesy call
(Why would you wanna save my life?)
This is just a matter of policy
(I know you did or you could)
This is just an act of kindness
(It's been comin' for a long time, long time...)
To let you know that your time is up

    Demi Lavato found from heroin overdose Today! 2017 1 of 100 most influential folks...Ironic! I thought so.. I hope she lived like Sixx got too!

  5. F.... W....

    Keep on keepn on....

  6. k.... ....

    Heard this song about three years ago. Been trying to find it since. Was actually another song called courtesy call that made me remember the name. Finally!

    k.... ....

    I wrote, "courtesy call" in a message and got slapped in my brains face by this song. Lol

  7. J.... W....

    just a matter of policy

  8. J.... W....

    love this

  9. K.... W....

    Nikki had requested a courtesy call from the front desk of a hotel, meaning they'd call to wake him up or for whatever he requested it for. They called, he didn't answer so they went to go investigate why.. they knew he was in his room so they went in. he had od'd in his hotel room.

    K.... W....

    thanks for the synopsis,...

  10. C.... B....

    All that you'll find inside are pills and butterflies, but I'll be smiling when I die.

    C.... B....

    +Chase Bissett it's actually 'bells and butterflies'

  11. l.... v....

    one of the best more of my favorite the best… 😢

  12. D.... B....

    This song really needs a music video...

    D.... B....

    If you have been there and you may, I have! I don't need a video for this, i have a video in my head.

  13. Z.... P....

    cut off the ending, ruined it for me -.-

  14. b.... ....

    this cd brings back so many memories of a time when i had everything or so i thought

    b.... ....

    Fully understand man.

  15. F.... ....

    It's how I think others should take it as well, as that pretty much is what he's trying to do with his music. I agree with you.

  16. k.... a....

    ♥ ♥ ♥ i love so muchhhhhhh

  17. E.... ....

    Powerful, beautiful fucking song.

  18. L.... P....

    How the hell could someone not like this? Seriously, Nikki has laid out his heart in all of his music. It's like he's taking you into his memories and experiences and begging you not to repeat them or give up. Anyways that's how I take it.

  19. K.... R....

    I love this song... Sixx:A.M. is amazing. <3

  20. K.... R....

    @Wrathofthelichking1 It is a song about suicide. Someone ignored the signs of it, and the 'courtesy call' is something that practically lets the person know they ran out of time to save the other.

    K.... R....

    Kiera Rowley and I've been there. someone just happened to find me. I didn't call anyone

  21. L.... Y....

    @Wrathofthelichking1 Don't expect this to be an accurate assumption, but because of the lyrics and the talking in the background and the name of the album, I'm guessing someone ODed in a hotel room.

  22. R.... C....

    great song !!

  23. W.... ....

    Can somebody explain the meaning of this song please? I like it i'd just like to know the meaning behind it. thanks!

    W.... ....

    He od'ed they found him

  24. J.... R....

    2 dislikes?!?!?!?!?

  25. R.... J....

    that door slamming open.......*sniff* gets me right here (points to heart) everytime

  26. M.... 2....

    @1990MattyD I know. People push them around. Even when they are injected by force of another person. Everyone like his comment. The world needs to see that.

  27. B.... C....

    Darren Jay Ashba is the best guitarist GN'R have ever had and absolutely amazing in sixx a.m

    B.... C....

  28. m.... ....
