My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I [00:04.88] Got out of bed at all [00:07.11] The morning rain clouds up my window [00:10.76] And I can't see at all [00:13.15] And even if I could, it'd all be gray [00:16.76] But your picture on my wall [00:19.02] It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad [00:25.15] My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I [00:28.73] Got out of bed at all [00:31.12] The morning rain clouds up my window [00:34.74] And I can't see at all [00:36.90] And even if I could, it'd all be gray [00:40.60] But your picture on my wall [00:43.01] It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad [00:48.42] Dear Slim, I wrote you, but you still ain't callin' [00:51.43] I left my cell, my pager and my home phone at the bottom [00:54.49] I sent two letters back in autumn, you must not've got 'em [00:57.48] There probably was a problem at the post office or somethin' [01:00.37] Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em [01:03.45] But anyways, fuck it, what's been up, man? How's your daughter? [01:06.41] My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm 'bout to be a father [01:09.03] If I have a daughter, guess what I'ma call her?

"We should be together too" [03:12.91] My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I [03:16.67] Got out of bed at all [03:18.92] The morning rain clouds up my window [03:22.62] And I can't see at all [03:24.94] And even if I could, it'd all be gray [03:28.66] But your picture on my wall [03:31.07] It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad [03:36.19] Dear Mr. I'm-Too-Good-to-Call-or-Write-My-Fans [03:39.28] This'll be the last package I ever send your ass [03:42.22] It's been six months, and still no word, I don't deserve it? [03:44.72] I know you got my last two letters, I wrote the addresses on 'em perfect [03:48.28] So this is my cassette I'm sendin' you, I hope you hear it [03:51.38] I'm in the car right now, I'm doin' 90 on the freeway [03:54.30] Hey, Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka, you dare me to drive? [03:57.60] You know the song by Phil Collins, "In the Air of the Night" [04:00.56] About that guy who coulda've saved that other guy from drownin' [04:03.43] But didn't, then Phil saw it all, then at a show he found him? [04:06.46] That's kinda how this is, you coulda rescued me from drownin' [04:09.22] Now it's too late, I'm on a thousand downers now, I'm drowsy [04:12.65] And all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call [04:15.35] I hope you know I ripped all of your pictures off the wall [04:18.49] I loved you, Slim, we coulda been together, think about it! [04:21.77] You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it [04:24.86] And when you dream, I hope you can't sleep and you scream about it [04:27.88] I hope your conscience eats at you and you can't breathe without me [04:30.66] See, Slim, shut up, bitch! I'm tryin' to talk [04:33.52] Hey, Slim, that's my girlfriend screamin' in the trunk [04:36.01] But I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her up, see? I ain't like you [04:39.56] 'Cause if she suffocates, she'll suffer more and then she'll die too [04:42.64] Well, gotta go, I'm almost at the bridge now [04:45.59] Oh, shit, I forgot, how am I supposed to send this shit out? [04:49.56] [05:01.05] My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I [05:04.89] Got out of bed at all [05:07.12] The morning rain clouds up my window [05:10.68] And I can't see at all [05:13.04] And even if I could, it'd all be gray [05:16.58] But your picture on my wall [05:19.15] It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad [05:24.13] Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner, but I just been busy [05:27.37] You said your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she? [05:30.47] Look, I'm really flattered you would call your daughter that [05:33.15] And here's an autograph for your brother; I wrote it on a Starter cap [05:36.66] I'm sorry I didn't see you at the show, I must've missed you [05:39.76] Don't think I did that shit intentionally just to diss you [05:42.65] But what's this shit you said about you like to cut your wrists too? [05:45.66] I say that shit just clownin', dawg, come on, how fucked up is you? [05:48.52] You got some issues, Stan, I think you need some counselin' [05:51.49] To help your ass from bouncin' off the walls when you get down some [05:54.53] And what's this shit about us meant to be together? [05:57.25] That type of shit'll make me not want us to meet each other [06:00.54] I really think you and your girlfriend need each other [06:03.28] Or maybe you just need to treat her better [06:05.63] I hope you get to read this letter, I just hope it reaches you in time [06:09.12] Before you hurt yourself, I think that you'll be doin' just fine [06:12.24] If you relax a little, I'm glad I inspire you, but Stan [06:15.20] Why are you so mad? Try to understand that I do want you as a fan [06:19.08] I just don't want you to do some crazy shit [06:21.07] I seen this one shit on the news a couple weeks ago that made me sick [06:24.62] Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge [06:27.23] And had his girlfriend in the trunk, and she was pregnant with his kid [06:30.22] And in the car, they found a tape, but they didn't say who it was to [06:33.21] Come to think about it, his name was, it was you [06:36.59] Damn [06:37.71]
