Lyrics

That Check's in the Mail You say we have a situation- You say we have a ship that could sail-- and now you want a reputation-- old buddy, that check's in the mail. I looked up an old friend who knows your name well-- Printed your address so's anyone could tell-- and sped it to its destination-- old buddy, that check's in the mail. You feed me more disinformation then lead me into circles of strife; that thing you call a conversation has got me in fear of my life. I guess I must measure your push and my pull, come to some balance and pay it in full. enclosed is an exact summation; old buddy, that check's in the mail. Although you represent the nation, and I am but a fish in the sea, Your over-read imagination must surely make a memo of me. Your answer awaits at the next wishing well-- Just what it cost me no gentleman will tell-- And mostly I'll be on vacation- old buddy, that check's in the mail.
