Lyrics

As Johnpfitz has pointed out, we warblers strain at the upper registers of the original keys. So here's the perfect solution: Joe Aro! Who was gracious enough to agree to sing this with me. Written by Brad Weiss, Sung by Joe Aro & B Weiss

Most days this show is just a list of all of the things he hates
He'll even bitch about the red wine and french fries he ate

What's in the mailbag?
That's what we neeeeeed
When this stinking show is over
That's what he'll read

What's in the mailbag?
Maybe a Shad haiku
What's in the mailbag?
Or one of Jerry's tunes
What's in the mailbag?
Mike from Burke can be funny
What's in the mailbag?
Carla Corroto is money
In the mailbag
Mailbag!

Maybe he'll read a story from the paper word for word
Then the newscast comes and says the same damn thing that we've just heard

Thank God for mailbag!
That's why we're heeeere
When this stinking show is over
That's what he'll read

Parody of "The Drifters"

    So much to love, guys. Beyond the collaboration (aces!), this is my fave: "Maybe he'll read a story from the paper word for word Then the newscast comes and says the same damn thing that we've just heard "
