[00:00.51] My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I

[00:03.69] Got out of bed at all

[00:06.12] The morning rain clouds up my window

[00:09.84] And I can't see at all

[00:12.23] And even if I could, it'd all be grey

[00:16.22] But your picture on my wall

[00:18.33] It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad

[00:24.16] My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I

[00:27.89] Got out of bed at all

[00:30.27] The morning rain clouds up my window

[00:33.75] And I can't see at all

[00:36.13] And even if I could, it'd all be grey

[00:40.12] But your picture on my wall

[00:42.51] It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad

[00:48.09] Dear Slim, I wrote you, but you still ain't callin'

[00:51.01] I left my cell, my pager and my home phone at the bottom

[00:53.93] I sent two letters back in autumn, you must not've got 'em

[00:56.85] There probably was a problem at the post office or somethin'

[00:59.77] Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em

[01:02.96] But anyways, fuck it, what's been up, man? How's your daughter?

[01:06.34] My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm 'bout to be a father

[01:08.73] If I have a daughter, guess what I'ma call her?

[01:10.88] I'ma name her Bonnie

[01:12.14] I read about your Uncle Ronnie too, I'm sorry

[01:15.06] I had a friend kill himself over some bitch who didn't want him

[01:17.98] I know you probably hear this every day, but I'm your biggest fan

[01:21.46] I even got the underground shit that you did with Skam

[01:24.39] I got a room full of your posters and your pictures, man

[01:27.59] I like the shit you did with Rawkus too, that shit was phat

[01:30.51] Anyways, I hope you get this, man, hit me back

[01:33.36] Just to chat, truly yours, your biggest fan, this is Stan

[01:36.54] My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I

[01:39.94] Got out of bed at all

[01:42.86] The morning rain clouds up my window

[01:45.78] And I can't see at all

[01:48.45] And even if I could, it'd all be grey

[01:52.16] But your picture on my wall

[01:54.55] It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad

[01:59.81] Dear Slim, you still ain't called or wrote, I hope you have a chance

[02:03.24] I ain't mad, I just think it's fucked up you don't answer fans

[02:06.45] If you didn't want to talk to me outside your concert, you didn't have to

[02:09.91] But you coulda signed an autograph for Matthew

[02:12.04] That's my little brother, man, he's only six years old

[02:14.43] We waited in the blisterin' cold

[02:16.30] For you, for four hours, and you just said no

[02:18.40] That's pretty shitty, man, you're like his fuckin' idol

[02:21.08] He wants to be just like you, man, he likes you more than I do

[02:23.99] I ain't that mad, though I just don't like bein' lied to

[02:26.64] Remember when we met in Denver?

[02:29.04] You said if I'd write you, you would write back

[02:31.16] See, I'm just like you in a way: I never knew my father neither

[02:34.28] He used to always cheat on my mom and beat her

[02:36.68] I can relate to what you're sayin' in your songs

[02:39.07] So when I have a shitty day, I drift away and put 'em on

[02:41.99] ‘Cause I don't really got shit else

[02:43.55] So that shit helps when I'm depressed

[02:44.86] I even got a tattoo with your name across the chest

[02:48.01] Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds

[02:50.88] It's like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me

[02:53.78] See, everything you say is real, and I respect you ‘cause you tell it

[02:57.24] My girlfriend's jealous 'cause I talk about you 24/7

[02:59.63] But she don't know you like I know you, Slim, no one does

[03:03.08] She don't know what it was like for people like us growin' up

[03:05.96] You gotta call me, man, I'll be the biggest fan you'll ever lose

[03:08.87] Sincerely yours, Stan—P.S. We should be together too

[03:11.80] My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I

[03:15.79] Got out of bed at all

[03:18.19] The morning rain clouds up my window

[03:21.65] And I can't see at all

[03:24.32] And even if I could, it'd all be grey

[03:27.76] But your picture on my wall

[03:30.45] It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad

[03:36.01] Dear Mr. I'm-Too-Good-to-Call-or-Write-My-Fans

[03:39.20] This'll be the last package I ever send your ass

[03:41.86] It's been six months, and still no word—I don't deserve it?

[03:44.52] I know you got my last two letters, I wrote the addresses on 'em perfect

[03:47.70] So this is my cassette I'm sendin' you, I hope you hear it

[03:50.91] I'm in the car right now, I'm doin' 90 on the freeway

[03:53.58] Hey, Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka, you dare me to drive?

[03:57.60] You know the song by Phil Collins, "In the Air of the Night"

[04:00.18] About that guy who coulda saved that other guy from drownin'

[04:03.11] But didn't, then Phil saw it all, then at a show he found him?

[04:06.04] That's kinda how this is: you coulda rescued me from drownin'

[04:08.70] Now it's too late, I'm on a thousand downers now—I'm drowsy

[04:12.16] And all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call

[04:14.54] I hope you know I ripped all of your pictures off the wall

[04:17.73] I loved you, Slim, we coulda been together—think about it!

[04:21.45] You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it

[04:24.10] And when you dream I hope you can't sleep and you scream about it

[04:27.03] I hope your conscience eats at you and you can't breathe without me

[04:30.24] See, Slim—shut up, bitch! I'm tryin' to talk

[04:33.16] Hey, Slim, that's my girlfriend screamin' in the trunk

[04:35.47] But I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her up—see? I ain't like you

[04:39.13] ‘Cause if she suffocates she'll suffer more and then she'll die too

[04:42.04] Well, gotta go, I'm almost at the bridge now

[04:44.98] Oh, shit, I forgot—how am I supposed to send this shit out?!

[05:00.33] My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I

[05:03.78] Got out of bed at all

[05:06.17] The morning rain clouds up my window

[05:09.63] And I can't see at all

[05:12.55] And even if I could, it'd all be grey

[05:16.00] But your picture on my wall

[05:18.40] It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad

[05:23.97] Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner, but I just been busy

[05:27.16] You said your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she?

[05:29.82] Look, I'm really flattered you would call your daughter that

[05:32.75] And here's an autograph for your brother; I wrote it on a Starter cap

[05:35.94] I'm sorry I didn't see you at the show, I must've missed you

[05:39.12] Don't think I did that shit intentionally just to diss you

[05:41.79] But what's this shit you said about you like to cut your wrists too?

[05:45.44] I say that shit just clownin', dawg, come on, how fucked up is you?

[05:48.63] You got some issues, Stan, I think you need some counselin'

[05:51.28] To help your ass from bouncin' off the walls when you get down some

[05:53.94] And what's this shit about us meant to be together?

[05:56.36] That type of shit'll make me not want us to meet each other

[05:59.82] I really think you and your girlfriend need each other

[06:02.74] Or maybe you just need to treat her better

[06:05.35] I hope you get to read this letter, I just hope it reaches you in time

[06:08.80] Before you hurt yourself, I think that you'll be doin' just fine

[06:11.48] If you relax a little, I'm glad I inspire you, but Stan

[06:14.88] Why are you so mad? Try to understand that I do want you as a fan

[06:18.54] I just don't want you to do some crazy shit

[06:20.65] I seen this one shit on the news a couple weeks ago that made me sick

[06:24.27] Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge

[06:26.78] And had his girlfriend in the trunk, and she was pregnant with his kid

[06:29.78] And in the car they found a tape, but they didn't say who it was to

[06:32.99] Come to think about it, his name was—it was you

[06:36.17] Damn…
