Mailman
The Good Life
Indian Giver






(C. McNamara / A.K.A)




I heard about the mailman
I hear he doesn't talk to anyone
The kids are cutting school now
They tag along behind him just for fun

He never works a weekend
But he never skips a beat from nine to five
He's always looking sharp in
His uniform, it's always clean and dry

Mailman
There's gotta be a secret
Mailman
Won't let you write a letter, says he does it better


No one knows what goes on in his mind

There's gotta be a reason
He's always got a smile from ear to ear
He's keeping it a secret
There's something fishy going on around here

And don't you think it's strange how
All the kids in town have got his eyes
While all the guys are working
He spends alot of time with their housewives

Mailman
There's gotta be a secret
Mailman
He does it with the lights on, working with no clothes on


No one knows what goes on in his mind

Bridge

Mailman
There's gotta be a secret
Mailman
Won't let you write a letter, says he does it better

Mailman
There's gotta be a secret
Mailman
He does it with the lights on, working with no clothes on


Now we know what goes on in his...
Now we know what goes on in his...
Now we know what goes on in his mind

Excuse me mum but do you know
What happens to us and where do we go
Is heaven & hell just a myth
Why is everyone just so different

What is my view on life
I'll tell you when I find out
What do I think of you
But first what do you think of me

Why are we all so different
When we're living the same life
I just can't handle the truth no more
But please don't lie to me

I have a dog you have a cat
No one really cares alot about that
My parents are cool yours a divorced
Cause that's the trendy thing to do

I know life's hard but it's a fact
That we try and follow the better act
I just can't handle the truth no more
But please don't lie to me

Have you found the good life yet
If you have please tell me
Please tell me i wanna know it all


Why does the world turn around
Who decided that and why didn't they ask me
Why is the sun just so hot
Do you really care at all

Tell me about the birds and the bees
Or aren't I old enough yet mum
You just can't handle the truth yourself
That's why you lie to me

Have you found the good life yet
If you have please tell me
Please tell me i wanna know it all


Excuse me mum but you don't
What happens to us or where we go
Everything we hear is just a myth
That's why everyone's just so different

If I promised you the world
Would you hold me to my word
And take it all away from me
At least the things that you can see

Would you tell me it's OK
We'll be together everyday
And then remind me all the time
Of what was yours and what was mine

What I give to you today
I'll take back another way
If you take a piece of me
I'll be coming for my fee


Will you listen patiently
To everything that's bugging me
And would you bring me up to date
With things that I said yesterday

After all that we've been through
Would you find somebody new
Just to turn it all around
You never wanted to be found

What I give to you today
I'll take back another way
If you take a piece of me
I'll be coming for my fee


Bridge

What I give to you today
I'll take back another way
If you take a piece of me
I'll be coming for my fee


What I give to you today
I'll take back another way
If you take a piece of me
I'll be coming for my fee


You take back what you give me
You take back what you give me

You're giving Indian
You're giving Indian
You're giving Indian
You're giving Indian
