Lyrics

Every day I’m going to the mailbox On Sundays and holidays Just as bloody likely Midnight, daylight, online, and all the time I’m waiting for a countess to notice me I’m looking for your letter like Peter Tchaikovsky for Nadja We all fantasize about the lottery But I have this dream that you’re gonna sponsor me Oh Nadja, please! I know that it seems pathatique But that’s just how things feel when you don’t write to me Because with your help, I’ll need for no one else Please don’t think it’s a crime to patronize Oh Nadja! If you never want to meet me, I understand completely I don’t want to fool around I just want a pen pal And I’ll share my secrets while you see genius cause on these pages nothing’s wasted The ledger lines will take us higher Through the wire is a kind of romance so please, Kiss me with your supple finance Because the fortune you could offer me Is more than common currency And I know you’ll invest if you believe in me But how can that be true If Nadja, I do not believe in you? Every day I’m going to to mailbox On Sundays and probably most people think I’m crazy For Nadja
