Oh, the only decent thing I did when I worked as a postal clerk; Was to haul your picture down off the wall near the cage where I used to work.; Was I a fool or not to try to protect your identity?; You looked a little burned out, my friend,; I thought it might be up to me.
All my friends have told me; If I hang around with you; That I'll go blind
Twenty years of schoolin' and they put you on the day shift

Make promises by the hours
My love she laughs like the flowers
Valentines can't buy her

Any day now, any day now,; I shall be released.
