The Diner

Don't be afraid of me

I'm what you need

I saw you on the screens

I know we're meant to be

You're starring in my dreams

In magazines

You're looking right at me

I'm here around the clock

I'm waiting on your block

But please, don't call the cops

They'll make me stop

And I just wanna talk

Bet I could change your life

You could be my wife (wife, wife)

Could get into a fight

I'll say you're right and

You'll kiss me goodnight

I waited on the corner

Till I saw the sitter leave

Was easy getting over

When I landed on my feet

I came in through the kitchen

Looking for something to eat

I left a calling card

So they would know that it was me

( )

I tried to save you, but I failed

Two-fifty-thousand-dollar bail

(Two hundred fifty thousand dollars)

While I'm away, don't read my mail

(Don't read my mail)

Just bring a veil

(Just bring a veil)

And come visit me in jail

(Visit me in jail)

I'll go back to the diner

I'll write another letter

(I'll write another letter)

I hope you'll read it this time

(This time)

You better

The cops around the corner

Stopped me when I tried to leave

They told me I was crazy and

They knocked me off my feet

They came in through the kitchen

Looking for something discrete

I left a calling card

So that they would know that it was me

( )

(Know that it was me)

I memorized your number

Now I call you when I please

I tried to end it all

But now I'm back up on my feet

I saw you in the car with someone else

And couldn't sleep

If something happens to him

You can bet that it was me

Three-nine-five-six

Three-one-oh, eight-oh-seven

Three-nine-five-six

Three-one-oh, eight-oh-seven

Three-nine-five-six
