The Lyrics

dear sir or madam
will you read my work ?
it took a year to write
nearly went bezerk
tried to be novel
but the theme's unclear
and my veins would throb
when i knew that i had better retype 'er
better retype 'er

better retype 'er

i used thirty pages
both the front and back
but it wasn't right
how i blew my stack
the first part's workin'
but the end's derailed
and my eyes would pop
when i knew that i had better retype 'er
better retype 'er

better retype 'er

then, a thousand pages
and that's quite a few
i'm still writin' more
cause a verse, i blew
i can't last much longer
i'll go "postman-style"
and my head went 'round
when i knew that i had better retype 'er
better retype 'er

better retype 'er

hope you really like it
i used all my might
it only took a million...
pages...now, its right !
if you merely spurn it
i have lost a year
and my heart would break
but you're crazy if you think i'll retype 'er
never retype 'er

never retype 'er

never retype 'er...never retype 'er
never retype 'er...never retype 'er
never retype 'er...never repyte 'er
(reptye ?....REPYTE???....DAMMIT !)
