    In the song "Sylvia's Mother" by Dr. Hook how much money is spent making the phone call?

    Question #52043. Asked by mountside. (Oct 30 04 11:58 AM)

    		Assuming that the singer paid an initial 40c to start the phone call, and given that the operator asks three times during the song for 40c more, that would make the total cost of the call 160c.
