[Herman Frank / White - Charlie Huhn - Tommy Newton - Peter Knorn - Fritz Randow -- Ric Browde] If promises were dollars I'd be a millionaire Instead I'm living in squalor And getting skinny and pale You know your phone is always busy Or else you put me on hold I'm getting hungry and dizzy And this is getting real old The postman don't ring twice of my house In fact he don't ring at all No U.P.S. no Federal Express Won't somebody give me a call You say the check's in the mail Is it a lie? The check's in the mail Or just another tall tale Don't tell me baby I've heard it all before The check's in the mail You say the check's in the mail Is it a lie? SongtexteThe check's in the mail Or just another tall tale Don't tell me baby I've heard it all before The check's in the mail You say you'll pay me tomorrow But tomorrow never comes I got nowhere to borrow It's time to get out the guns The light in the tunnel Is just an oncoming train Better listen to the rumble 'Cause it's the calm before the rain The postman don't ring twice of my house In fact he don't ring at all No U.P.S. no Federal Express Won't somebody give me a call You say the check's in the mail Is it a lie? The check's in the mail Or just another tall tale Don't tell me baby I've heard it all before The check's in the mail I look every day 'Cause the check's in the mail Is it a lie? The check's in the mail Or just another tall tale Don't tell me baby I'd really be surprised The check's in the mail The check's in the mail The check's in the mail The check's in the mail The check's in the mail You say the check's in the mail Is it a lie? The check's in the mail Or just another tall tale Don't tell me baby I've heard it all before The check's in the mail You say the check's in the mail I've been knocking 'round your door The check's in the mail I got something in store Don't tell me baby Can't take it no more You say the check's in the mail You say the check's in the mail I'm getting my gun The check's in the mail I'm gonna have me some fun Don't tell me baby Because I've heard it before You say the check's in the mail You say the check's in the mail I'm getting my gun The check's in the mail I'm gonna have me some fun Don't tell me baby Because I've heard it before You say the check's in the mail Aus Songtexte Mania
