return to sender while the black and white hums
the kettle whistles with the beating of heart drums
hide the stranger when the serviceman comes
she's baking breakfast for the invisable bums
so save your money, roll the table-scraps up, honey
so when it rains, no little voice can complain
start running backwards when the going gets tough
then build a crossword out of words that you made up
cuz' guilty pleasures soothe the pain just enough
i'll stand and give a speech completely off the cuff
watch and learn it while the weathermane turns it, allright
you never change, you just slowly re-arrange
why can't you say
you're in my way
stamps on my back
push me towards the mailman
while your yellin'
return to sender while the feeling's still numb
turning your back inside itself with contortions
dancing a pattern with invisable bums
the kettle whistles and explodes all the bass drums
i'm saving money, writing letters, getting better, honey
you'll never change, i better start a brand new page
