Here's hopin' the food don't get cold
And the phone don't ring
That thing has a habit
Of suddenly changing things
[Chorus]
Last time they called
They were looking for you
They're calling again
What am I gonna do?
[Verse 2]
Sometimes that ol' mailman,
He carries a bag of tricks
He once left me something
That sure left me in a fix
[Chorus]
That letter said lots of things
That weren't true
But everything's changed now,
And what can I do?
[Verse 3]
Just like an old movie-star
Jumps at a telegram
The second he gets it,
His brain hears those jail doors slam
[Chorus]
He'll get caught up in
An elaborate scam
With too many subplots
To count on his hands
[Verse 1] Here's hopin' the food don't get cold And the phone don't ring That thing has a habit Of suddenly changing things [Chorus] Last time they called They were looking for you They're calling again What am I gonna do? [Verse 2] Sometimes that ol' mailman, He carries a bag of tricks He once left me something That sure left me in a fix [Chorus] That letter said lots of things That weren't true But everything's changed now, And what can I do? [Verse 3] Just like an old movie-star Jumps at a telegram The second he gets it, His brain hears those jail doors slam [Chorus] He'll get caught up in An elaborate scam With too many subplots To count on his hands Explain Request ×
