The Cheque's In The Post - Momus[00:00:00]

Me and my lawyer sat down and worked out[00:00:07]

The full cost of the wrongs I have done you[00:00:11]

And I'm sending the money to you[00:00:16]

The cheque's in the post[00:00:20]

For giving you hell[00:00:27]

When I should have been treating you well[00:00:30]

Reparation five hundred five pound notes in a roll[00:00:35]

For remarks about your weight[00:00:44]

For complaining when you were late[00:00:49]

Compensation two thousand pounds the going rate[00:00:53]

For the times we were out[00:01:03]

And my eye kept roving about[00:01:08]

Settling on younger women[00:01:11]

Fifteen hundred say it's forgiven[00:01:15]

Running total six thousand three hundred and fifty pounds[00:01:22]

With tax added on[00:01:30]

And that's just the end of verse one[00:01:34]

For attacking your superstition[00:01:41]

Your pantheistic new age religion[00:01:45]

Let's say the sum of one thousand seven hundred and[00:01:49]

Ninety seven[00:01:55]

When I said your new dress wasn't splendid[00:02:00]

When I told you the way the film ended[00:02:04]

I guess I was wrong accept this token seven thousand pounds[00:02:08]

And for passing the pictures I'd taken[00:02:18]

Of your body totally naked[00:02:23]

Around all our friends let's call it a round nine[00:02:27]

Thousand pounds[00:02:32]

Running total twenty four thousand one hundred and[00:02:38]

Forty seven pounds[00:02:43]

On it's way to you[00:02:45]

And this is just the end of verse two[00:02:49]

Me and my lawyer sat down and worked out[00:02:56]

The real cost of the wrongs I have done you[00:03:00]

And I'm sending the money to you[00:03:05]

The cheque's in the post[00:03:09]

And for my next indiscretion[00:03:15]

When we had sex on the floor of the kitchen[00:03:19]

I sang it in a song accept ten thousand make that[00:03:23]

Eleven thousand pounds[00:03:28]

And for failing to give enough time[00:03:34]

To the baby that could have been mine[00:03:38]

It's not that I don't care my love it's just so hard[00:03:42]

To find a figure[00:03:47]

Worst of all I stopped loving your body[00:03:53]

Making you feel so low[00:03:58]

Though my lawyer says no blame can be apportioned[00:04:02]

For circumstances beyond my control[00:04:07]

So now I'm all paid up[00:04:11]

And absolved from this guilt[00:04:13]

I'm going to get another girl in[00:04:16]

Under my quilt[00:04:18]

And run up[00:04:20]

Another massive debt[00:04:23]

Hail Mary[00:04:30]

Pray for me now[00:04:34]

Now and at the hour of my death[00:04:38]
