Lyrics

What's the matter with the mail he's reading
"Did you know that I'm out to lunch?"
"I like the cheese nips over cheez-its Tony
and for breakfast I ate Captain Crunch...."
My girlfriend always makes me eggs that are runny...
Did ya' know I switched to Geico and I saved a bunch of money?
Everybody's talkin' 'bout what they had for dinner
but it's still the mailbag to me.....

John Fitz and KJ got a brand new jingle
I'm wonderin' why it hasn't made the show
If you're havin' trouble cooking that chicken
Neil In Rockville's gonna let you know....
Nowadays it's kinda tough getting air time
Your best bet's a song or an email with one line
Haiku, Raju, even Johnny Walker Blue
It's still the mailbag to me.....

It doesn't matter what you say in your emails
Most the time it's all about cuisine
Here comes a Brad Weiss song, now the Mailbag is on
Duh I'm winning just like Charlie Sheen
Sitting at the google machine......

Parody of Billy Joel's "IT'S STILL ROCK N ROLL TO ME"

    Honestly, I have no complaints at all. The last 6 months have been about as much fun as I have ever had, and I cannot thank you ALL enough. My self-pity is all in the spirit of the dopiness of the whole thing.

    "Here comes a Brad Weiss song, now the Mailbag is on." Yeah, likes that's gonna happen . . . Thanks for the shoutout! It feels a little to have sung 50+ mailbag themes and realize that my odds of making the mailbag are no better than if I wrote that I prefer Gouda to Muenster.

    Can't go wrong with Billy Joel and these lyrics are a lot of fun. The GEICO bit was a good non-sequitur and I especially liked the "email with one line" line.
