Another Postcard - Barenaked Ladies

You can’t imagine so many monkeys in the daily mail

All of them coming anonymously so they leave no trail

I never thought I’d have an admirer from overseas

But someone is sending me stationary filled with chimpanzees.

Some chimps in swimsuits, some chimps are swinging from a vine

Some chimps in jackboots, some chimps that wish they could be mine.

Starsky and Hutch chimps, a chimp who’s sitting on the can

A pair of Dutch chimps who send their love from Amsterdam.

CHORUS (x2):

Another postcard with chimpanzees

And every one is addressed to me.

If I had to guess, I’d say the monkey-sender thinks it’s great

He’s sending me, maybe she’s sending me just to see me get irate

I’m losing sleep — and it’s gonna be keeping me up all night

I thought it was funny, but now I’ve got money on a monkey fight.

Some chimps in hard hats, chimps a-working on a chain gang

Some chimps who love cats, burning rubber in a Mustang

A birthday-wishing chimp, a chimp in black like a goth

A goin' fishin' chimp, a British chimp in the bath.

CHORUS (x2)

Somehow they followed me even though I packed and moved my home

No matter what, they come and they come they won’t leave me alone

Another monkey in the mail could make me lose my mind

But look at me shuffling through the stack until I finally find

Some chimps in swimsuits

Some chimps in Jackboots

Some chimps in hard hats

Some chimps who love cats

I’ve got some shaved chimps;

that’s chimps devoid of any hair

I’ve got depraved chimps dressed up in da women’s underwear.

Another postcard with chimpanzees

And every one is addressed to me.

Every one is, every one is, every one is addressed to me.

Every one is, every one is, every one is addressed to me.

CHORUS (x4)

Some chimps in swimsuits, Some chimps in Jackboots

Some chimps in hard hats, Some chimps who love cats

I’ve got some shaved chimps;

that’s chimps devoid of any hair

I’ve got depraved chimps dressed up in women’s underwear.

Starsky and Hutch chimps, a chimp who’s sitting on the can

A pair of Dutch chimps who send their love from Amsterdam.

Some chimps in Mustangs, Some chimps in chain gangs

I got a birthday wishin' chimp and I got the goin' fishin' chimp
