John Postal by They Might Be Giants Lyrics

"Read my Yelp review of Riker's Island
You know I’ve withdrew from my life of violence
Now I just relax with my wife and my friends
And play the soothing music of New Orleans brass bands"

Do I know where I live?
Well, so do you
So do you

Won't say what I fear
What you could do
You might do

Don't apologize ’cause you're under a lid
You don't meet my gaze 'cause you keep your gaze hid

This is for me
Fancy this
Special D

This is for me
Fancy that
Freaky you
John Postal hands on the wheel (John Postal stays in his lane)
John Postal lost in the beams (John Postal thinks it's a shame)
John Postal pushed past the brink (John Postal maps out his screed)
John Postal does not agree (John Postal buries the lede)

"Look on Angie's List under recent comments
Understand my words were taken out of context"

Do I know what I got?
Well so do you
So do you

He's staring so loud
One missing stamp
Postage due

John Postal out in the road (John Postal stands in the rain)
John Postal talks to himself (John Postal poured down the drain)
John Postal carried upstream (John Postal rushed out to sea)
John Postal rides on a wave (John Postal same fever dream)
