You sent me a king size postcard
From your new life in Bel Air.
You said though breaking up was hard
You were glad I wasn't there!
You're happy in your king size bed,
At least that's what you said,
But I just think you're living a king size lie.
You wrote me a ten page letter
Telling me about your friends.
You said your life was better
Now you'd tidied up loose ends.
You say you love the party life;
You're happy not to be a wife!
But I still think you're living a king size lie.
Some day I hope you'll see
Where you should really be.
Maybe it's not with me;
That ship has sailed.
I know we failed.
You sent me a ten word email,
Terse and lacking grace,
In words beyond the pale,
That slapped me in the face!
You think that you're a lady now,
But someone needs to show you how
To live a life and not a king size lie.
Some day I hope you'll see
Where you should really be.
Maybe it's not with me;
That ship has sailed.
I know we failed.
(Instrumental interlude)
Some day I hope you'll see
Where you should really be.
Maybe it's not with me;
That ship has sailed.
I know we failed.
You sent me a ten word email,
Terse and lacking grace,
In words beyond the pale,
That slapped me in the face!
You think that you're a lady now,
But someone needs to show you how
To live a life and not a king size lie.
You need to live a life and not a king size lie.
