Airmail For Emma
I just moved into a new apartment for the time on my own I circulated the address, out the new phone Don't you wanna use my new address? Don't you drop a line? Doesn't anyone wanna let me they're fine ...?
Then one Tuesday morning it came through the front door Ever so appealing - lying on the floor I picked it up, I it - it's what I'd been waiting for But it was addressed to a Miss Gore
for Miss Emma, airmail for Miss Emma Gore Airmail for Miss Emma, but she don't live here Airmail for Miss Emma, airmail for Miss Emma for Miss Emma, but she don't live here anymore (And) I don't know no Gore
I put the letter on the counter - it my curiosity What if Miss had won the lottery? Maybe it's just an unpaid bill - be a rich uncle's will Or even better a love letter ...?
for Miss Emma, airmail for Miss Emma Gore Airmail for Miss Emma, but she don't live anymore Airmail for Miss Emma, for Miss Emma Gore Airmail for Miss Emma, but she don't live here (And I don't no Emma Gore)
I'm gonna steam it open, I'm making tea I've waited long enough I think I've great restraint I picked up I caressed it - it's what I'd waiting for But it was addressed to a Miss Emma But she don't here anymore, I don't know no Emma Gore for Miss Emma, airmail for Miss Emma Gore Airmail for Miss Emma, but she don't live anymore for Miss Emma, airmail for Miss Emma Gore Airmail for Miss Emma, but she don't here anymore (And) I know no Emma Gore
Getting other people's is a bore depends of course on who it's for I want Emma's - that's for sure Her not welcome on my floor And she's not welcome my door That would just make me feel I don't rhyme no more Emma's just a whore
