Lyrics

I was gonna call you tonight
But I got in a fight
With the phone booth down the road
I was 60 cents short
One day you'll understand
Why losers are always men
Your long distance godfather
Better go home
And write you a letter
My letter is dead
Shot by the postman, they said
My words resist
Bruised and battered
By the border agent's fist
One day you'll realise
That bullies are mostly guys
Your godfather is just a loser
And he loves you more
Than letters can tell
Baby girl
