letter in the mail - henry phillips lyrics

[live intro]
one night i was watching a documentary
on hallucinogenic drugs
which i think is really the best way to watch a documentary
if you get a chance, but uh*
but it was about, um, it was about, uh*
i don’t remeber what it was about, but uh*
but i remember writing this song that night
it’s a little song about my financial situation
i hope you enjoy it
[verse 1]
i just got a letter in the mail
saying that i failed to pay my credit card in time
and that’s a forty dollar fine
which would’ve been okay
except for that it caused me to exceed my credit line
and that’s another forty dollar fine

[verse 2]
so then i get another piece of mail
this one said the balance due is drawn from my checking account
which caused a bunch of checks to bounce
which would’ve been okay
except the fact that one of those checks was to the dmv
for my registration fee

[bridge]
so the next day i was on my way to work
and i couldn’t find my car
it wasn’t where i parked it just the day before

[verse 3]
and then i get another piece of mail
this one said the registration tags were out of date
so they towed my car away
which wasn’t quite okay
i called them to explain ’em
when i finally got through
they just made me wait on hold
[break]
do*do*do*do*do*do*do*do*do
do*do*do*do

[verse 4]
and after forty minutes i hung up
because i had to go to work
but then i realized
if i don’t have a car then how the f*ck am i gonna get to work?
so i got fired from my job

[outro]
so here i am just living in a box
underneath a bridge in this quiet little town
and i take a look around
things are quite okay
i don’t get any bills
and the best part of it is
that i can’t get any mail
(thanks)
