Lyrics for Lightning Strikes the Postman

I got your letter, it had turned to sand Lightning strikes the postman in his hand I hope that you remember the things you had to say It's just a supernatural delay I got your package, it was all a mess Lightning strikes the postman in his chest I hope that you remember the things you had to say It's just a supernatural delay I sent you a postcard and I hope you're fine But lightning strikes the postman all the time I couldn't really think of anything to say It's just a supernatural delay And it's hard to read the writing through the flames
