Generate meaning
1
Dear Slim, I wrote you but still ain't callin'
2
I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom
3
I sent two letters back in autumn, you must not-a got 'em
4
There probably was a problem at the post office or somethin'
5
Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em
6
But anyways, F it, what's been up? Man how's your daughter?
7
My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm bout to be a father
8
If I have a daughter, guess what I'm a call her?
9
I'm a name her Bonnie
10
I read about your Uncle Ronnie too I'm sorry
11
I had a friend kill himself over some b**** who didn't want him
12
I know you probably hear this everyday, but I'm your biggest fan
13
I even got the underground shit that you did with Skam
14
I got a room full of your posters and your pictures man
15
I like the shit you did with Rawkus too, that s*** was fat
16
Anyways, I hope you get this man, hit me back,
17
Just to chat, truly yours, your biggest fan, this is Stan
18
The tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I
19
I got out of bed at all
20
The morning rain clouds up my window
21
And I can't see at all and even if I could it'll all be gray,
22
Put your picture on my wall
23
It reminds me, that it's not so bad, not so bad
24
Dear Slim, you still ain't called or wrote, I hope you have a chance
25
I ain't mad, I just think it's messed up you don't answer fans
26
If you didn't wanna talk to me outside your concert
27
You didn't have to, but you coulda signed an autograph for Matthew
28
That's my little brother man, he's only six years old
29
We waited in the blistering cold for you,
30
For four hours and you just said, "No."
31
That's pretty plummy man, you're like his favorite idol
32
He wants to be just like you man, he likes you more than I do
33
I ain't that mad though, I just don't like bein' lied to
34
Remember when we met in Denver, you said if I'd write you
35
You would write back, see I'm just like you in a way
36
I never knew my father neither,
37
He used to always cheat on my mom and beat her
38
I can relate to what you're saying in your songs
39
So when I have a crummy day, I drift away and put 'em on
40
Cause I don't really got s*** else so that s*** helps when I'm depressed
41
I even got a tattoo of your name across the chest
42
Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds
43
It's like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me
44
See everything you say is real, and I respect you 'cause you tell it
45
My girlfriend's jealous 'cause I talk about you 24/7
46
But she don't know you like I know you Slim, no one does
47
She don't know what it was like for people like us growin' up
48
You gotta call me man, I'll be the biggest fan you'll ever lose
49
Sincerely yours, Stan, P.S., we should be together too
50
My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I
51
I got out of bed at all
52
The morning rain clouds up my window
53
And I can't see at all
54
And even if I could it'll all be gray, put your picture on my wall
55
It reminds me, that it's not so bad, not so bad
56
Dear Mister "I'm Too Good To Call Or Write My Fans",
57
This will be the last package I ever send your ass
58
It's been six months and still no word, I don't deserve it?
59
I know you got my last two letters,
60
I wrote the addresses on 'em perfect
61
So this is my cassette I'm sending you, I hope you hear it
62
I'm in the car right now, I'm doing 90 on the freeway
63
Hey Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka, you dare me to drive?
64
You know the song by Phil Collins, "In the Air of the Night"
65
About that guy who could a saved that other guy from drowning
66
But didn't, then Phil saw it all, then at a a show he found him?
67
That's kinda how this is, you could a rescued me from drowning
68
Now it's too late, I'm on a thousand downers now, I'm drowsy
69
And all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call
70
I hope you know I ripped all of your pictures off the wall
71
I love you Slim, we coulda been together, think about it
72
You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it
73
And when you dream I hope you can't sleep and you scream about it
74
I hope your conscience eats at you and you can't breathe without me
75
See Slim, shut up b****! I'm tryin' to talk!
76
Hey Slim, that's my girlfriend screamin' in the trunk
77
But I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I ain't like you
78
'Cause if she suffocates she'll suffer more, and then she'll die too
79
Well, gotta go, I'm almost at the bridge now
80
Oh shoot, I forgot, how am I supposed to send this tape out?
81
The tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I
82
I got out of bed at all
83
The morning rain clouds up my window
84
And I can't see at all
85
And even if I could it'll all be gray, put your picture on my wall
86
It reminds me, that it's not so bad, not so bad
87
Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner but I just been busy
88
You said your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she?
89
Look, I'm really flattered you would call your daughter that
90
And here's an autograph for your brother, I wrote it on a Starter cap
91
I'm sorry I didn't see you at the show, I must of missed you
92
Don't think I did that s*** intentionally just to diss you
93
But what's this shit you said about you like to cut your wrists too?
94
I say that shit just clownin' dog, come on, how messed up is you?
95
You got some issues Stan, I think you need some counseling
96
To help your ass from bouncing off the walls when you get down some
97
And what's this junk about us meant to be together?
98
That type of crap will make me not want us to meet each other
99
I really think you and your girlfriend need each other
100
Or maybe you just need to treat her better
101
I hope you get to read this letter, I just hope it reaches you in time
102
Before you hurt yourself, I think that you'll be doin' just fine
103
If you relax a little, I'm glad I inspire you but Stan
104
Why are you so mad? Try to understand, that I do want you as a fan
105
I just don't want you to do some crazy shit
106
I seen this one s*** on the news a couple weeks ago that made me sick
107
Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge
108
And had his girlfriend in the trunk, and she was pregnant with his kid
109
And in the car they found a tape, but they didn't say who it was to
110
Come to think about, his name was, it was you, damn!
