My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all |
[00:08.140] |
the morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all |
[00:14.150] |
And even if I could it'd all be grey, but your picture on my wall |
[00:20.240] |
it reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad |
[00:26.770] |
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all |
[00:32.160] |
the morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all |
[00:38.200] |
And even if I could it'd all be grey, but your picture on my wall |
[00:44.310] |

[00:49.490] |
Dear Slim, I wrote you but you still ain't callin' |
[00:52.580] |
I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom |
[00:55.640] |
I sent two letters back in autumn You must not have got 'em |
[00:58.570] |
There probably was a problem at the post office or somethin' |
[01:01.540] |
|
[01:01.720] |
Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em |
[01:04.520] |
But anyways, fuck it, what's been up man, how's your daughter? |
[01:07.580] |
My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm out to be a father |
[01:10.070] |
If I have a daughter, guess what I'm-a call her? I'm-a |
[01:12.850] |

[01:13.620] |
|
[01:13.820] |
I read about your uncle Ronnie too, I'm sorry |
[01:16.410] |
I had a friend kill himself over some bitch who didn't wanthim. |
[01:19.520] |
I know you probably hear this everyday, but I'm your biggestfan. |
[01:22.820] |
I even got the underground shit that you did with Scam. |
[01:25.620] |
|
[01:25.960] |
I got a room full of your posters and your pictures, man. |
[01:28.900] |
I like the shit you did with Ruckus too, that shit was fat. |
[01:31.800] |
Anyways, I hope you get this man, hit me back, just to chat |
[01:35.410] |
Truly yours, your biggest fan, this is Stan. |
[01:37.800] |
|
[01:38.370] |
My tears gone cold, I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all |
[01:44.050] |
the morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all |
[01:50.030] |
And even if I could it'd all be great, to put your picture on my wall |
[01:56.090] |
it reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad |
[02:00.370] |
|
[02:01.230] |
Dear Slim, you still ain't called or wrote, |
[02:03.730] |
I hope you have the chance. |
[02:04.750] |
I ain't mad, I just think it's fucked up you don't answer fans. |
[02:07.850] |
If you didn't want to talk to me outside your concert |
[02:10.470] |
You didn't have to but you could have signed an autograph for Matthew. |
[02:13.560] |
That's my little brother, man. He's only 6 years old. |
[02:15.720] |
We waited in the blistering cold for you for 4 hours and ya just said no. |
[02:19.810] |
That's pretty shitty man, you're like his fuckin' idol |
[02:22.710] |
He wants to be just like you man, he likes you more |
[02:24.830] |
than I do. |
[02:25.520] |
|
[02:25.700] |
I ain't that mad, but I just don't like bein' lied to. |
[02:28.550] |
Remember when we met in Denver, you said if I write you |
[02:31.480] |
You would write back. See, I'm just like you in a way. |
[02:33.820] |
I never knew my father neither. |
[02:35.630] |
He used to always cheat on my mom and beat her. |
[02:37.770] |
|
[02:37.970] |
I can relate to what you're sayin' in your songs. |
[02:40.390] |
So when I have a shitty day, I drift away and put 'em on. |
[02:43.350] |
Cause I don't really got shit else, so that shit help when I'm depressed. |
[02:46.480] |
I even got a tattoo with your name across the chest. |
[02:49.170] |
|
[02:49.590] |
Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds. |
[02:52.600] |
It's like adrenaline. The Pain is such a sudden rush for me. |
[02:55.140] |
See, everything you say is real, and I respect you |
[02:58.000] |
'cause you tell it. |
[02:58.550] |
My girlfriend's jealous 'cause I talk about you 24/7. |
[03:01.530] |
But she don't know you like I know you, Slim, no one does. |
[03:04.330] |
She don't know what it was like for people like us growing up. |
[03:07.410] |
You've gotta call me man. I'll be the biggest fan |
[03:09.440] |
you'll ever lose. |
[03:10.250] |
Sincerely yours, Stan. PS: We should be together too. |
[03:13.380] |
|
[03:13.550] |
My tears gone cold, I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all |
[03:20.030] |
the morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all |
[03:26.030] |
And even if I could it'd all be great, to put your picture on my wall |
[03:32.040] |
it reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad |
[03:36.810] |
|
[03:37.050] |
Dear Mr. "I'm too good to call or write my fans" |
[03:40.270] |
This'll be the last package I ever send your ass. |
[03:43.390] |
It's been six months and still no word. I don't deserve it? |
[03:46.000] |
I know you got my last two letters, I wrote the addresses on 'em perfect. |
[03:49.480] |
|
[03:49.670] |
So this is my cassette I'm sending you. I hope you hear it. |
[03:52.140] |
I'm in the car right now. I'm doing 90 on the freeway. |
[03:55.380] |
Hey Slim, "I drank a fifth of vodka, ya dare me to drive?" |
[03:58.900] |
You know that song by Phil Collins from "The Air In The Night"? |
[04:01.850] |
About that guy who could have saved that other guy fromdrowning? |
[04:04.690] |
But didn't? Then Phil saw it all then at his show he found him? |
[04:07.580] |
That's kinda how this is. You could have rescued me fromdrowning. |
[04:10.470] |
Now it's too late. I'm on a thousand downers now, I'm drowsy. |
[04:13.040] |
|
[04:13.290] |
And all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call. |
[04:16.340] |
I hope you know I ripped all o' your pictures off the wall. |
[04:19.530] |
I love you Slim, we could have been together. Think about it. |
[04:22.920] |
You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it. |
[04:26.050] |
And when you dream, I hope you can't sleep and you scream about it. |
[04:29.000] |
I hope your conscious eats at you and you can't breathe without me. |
[04:32.380] |
See Slim, {screaming} shut up bitch, I'm trying to talk |
[04:34.560] |
Hey Slim, that's my girlfriend screaming in the trunk. |
[04:37.490] |
But I didn't slit her throat, |
[04:38.760] |
I just tied her up, see I ain't like you. |
[04:40.560] |
'Cause if she suffocates, she'll suffer more, |
[04:42.710] |
and then she'll die too. |
[04:43.880] |
Well, gotta go, I'm almost at the bridge now. |
[04:46.750] |
Oh shit, I forgot, how am I supposed to send this shit out? |
[04:49.800] |
|
[04:50.740] |
{screeching tires, crashing sounds, car splashes into thewater} |
[04:59.490] |
|
[05:01.890] |
My tears gone cold, I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all |
[05:08.060] |
the morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all |
[05:14.050] |
And even if I could it'd all be great, but your picture on my wall |
[05:20.180] |
it reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad |
[05:24.950] |
|
[05:25.530] |
Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner, but I've just been busy. |
[05:28.480] |
You said your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she? |
[05:31.560] |
Look, I'm really flattered you would call your daughter that. |
[05:34.420] |
And here's an autograph for your brother: |
[05:36.010] |
I wrote it on your Starter cap. |
[05:37.590] |
|
[05:37.880] |
I'm sorry I didn't see you at the show, I must have missed you. |
[05:40.910] |
Don't think I did that shit intentionally, just to diss you. |
[05:43.920] |
And what's this shit you said about you like to cut your wrists too? |
[05:47.050] |
I say that shit just clownin' dawg, |
[05:48.570] |
c'mon, how fucked up is you? |
[05:49.900] |
You got some issues, Stan, I think you need some counselin' |
[05:52.550] |
To help your ass from bouncin' off the walls when you get down some. |
[05:55.720] |
|
[05:56.120] |
And what's this shit about us meant to be together? |
[05:58.220] |
That type of shit'll make me not want us to meet each other. |
[06:01.450] |
I really think you and your girlfriend need each other. |
[06:04.400] |
Or maybe you just need to treat her better. |
[06:06.860] |
I hope you get to read this letter. |
[06:08.520] |
I just hope it reaches you in time. |
[06:10.330] |
Before you hurt yourself, I think that you'd be doin' just fine |
[06:13.290] |
If you'd relax a little. I'm glad that I inspire you, but Stan |
[06:16.460] |
Why are you so mad? Try to understand that I do want you as a fan. |
[06:20.070] |
I just don't want you to do some crazy shit. |
[06:22.530] |
I seen this one shit on the news a couple weeks ago that made me sick. |
[06:25.680] |
Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge |
[06:28.470] |
And had his girlfriend in the trunk and she was |
[06:30.370] |
pregnant with his kid |
[06:31.350] |
And in the car they found a tape but it didn't say who it was to |
[06:34.360] |
Come to think about it...his name was...it was you. |
[06:37.550] |
Damn. |
[06:40.030] |
|
[06:40.320] |
