-
- My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all
- The morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all
- And even if I could it'd all be gray but your picture on my wall
- It reminds me that it's not so bad it's not so bad
-

- Dear Slim I wrote you but you still ain't callin'
- I left my cell my pager and my home phone at the bottom
- I sent two letters back in autumn
- You must not have got 'em
- It probably was a problem at the post office or somethin'
-
- Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em
- But anyways fuck it what's been up man how's your daughter
- My girlfriend's pregnant too I'm out to be a father
- If I have a daughter guess what I'ma call her? I'ma name her Bonnie
-
- I read about your uncle Ronnie too I'm sorry
- I had a friend kill himself over some bitch who didn't want him
- I know you probably hear this everyday but I'm your biggest fan
- I even got the underground shit that you did with ScamZ
-
- I got a room full of your posters and your pictures man
- I like the shit you did with Ruckus too that shit was fat
- Anyways I hope you get this man hit me back just to chat
- Truly yours your biggest fan this is Stan

- Dear Slim you still ain't called or wrote I hope you have a chance
- I ain't mad - I just think it's FUCKED UP you don't answer fans
- If you didn't wanna talk to me outside your concert
- you didn't have to but you coulda signed an autograph for Matthew
- That's my little brother man he's only six years old
- We waited in the blistering cold for you
- four hours and you just said No.
- That's pretty shitty man - you're like his fucking idol
- He wants to be just like you man he likes you more than I do
- I ain't that mad though I just don't like being lied to
- Remember when we met in Denver you said if I'd write you
- you would write back see I'm just like you in a way
- I never knew my father neither;
- he used to always cheat on my mom and beat her
- I can relate to what you're saying in your songs
- so when I have a shitty day I drift away and put 'em on
- cause I don't really got shit else so that shit helps when I'm depressed
- I even got a tattoo with your name across the chest
- Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds
- It's like adrenaline the pain is such a sudden rush for me
- See everything you say is real and I respect you cause you tell it
- My girlfriend's jealous cause I talk about you 24/7
- But she don't know you like I know you Slim no one does
- She don't know what it was like for people like us growing up
- You gotta call me man I'll be the biggest fan you'll ever lose
- Sincerely yours Stan
- We should be together too
- My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all
- The morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all
- And even if I could it'll all be gray but your picture on my wall
- It reminds me that it's not so bad it's not so bad
- Dear Mister I'm Too Good To Call Or Write My Fans
- this'll be the last package I ever send your ass
- It's been six months and still no word - I don't deserve it?
- I know you got my last two letters;
- I wrote the addresses on 'em perfect
- So this is my cassette I'm sending you I hope you hear it
- I'm in the car right now I'm doing 90 on the freeway
- Hey Slim I drank a fifth of vodka you dare me to drive?
- You know the song by Phil Collins In the Air Tonight
- about that guy who coulda saved that other guy from drowning
- but didn't then Phil saw it all then at a show he found him?
- That's kinda how this is you coulda rescued me from drowning
- Now it's too late I'm on a 1000 downers now I'm drowsy
- and all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call
- I hope you know I ripped all of your pictures off the wall
- I love you Slim we coulda been together think about it
- You ruined it now I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it
- And when you dream I hope you can't sleep and you SCREAM about it
- I hope your conscience EATS AT YOU and you can't BREATHE without me
- See Slim Shut up bitch! I'm trying to talk!
- Hey Slim that's my girlfriend screaming in the trunk
- but I didn't slit her throat I just tied her up see I ain't like you
- cause if she suffocates she'll suffer more and then she'll die too
- Well gotta go I'm almost at the bridge now
- Oh shit I forgot how'm I supposed to send this shit out
-
- My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all
- The morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all
- And even if I could it'll all be gray but your picture on my wall
- It reminds me that it's not so bad it's not so bad
- Dear Stan I meant to write you sooner but I've just been busy
- You said your girlfriend's pregnant now how far along is she
- Look I'm really flattered you would call your daughter that
- and here's an autograph for your brother
- I wrote it on the Starter cap
- I'm sorry I didn't see you at the show I musta missed you
- Don't think I did that shit intentionally just to diss you
- But what's this shit you said about you like to cut your wrists too
- I say that shit just clowning dogg
- c'mon - how fucked up is you
- You got some issues Stan I think you need some counseling
- to help your ass from bouncing off the walls when you get down some
- And what's this shit about us meant to be together
- That type of shit'll make me not want us to meet each other
- I really think you and your girlfriend need each other
- or maybe you just need to treat her better
- I hope you get to read this letter I just hope it reaches you in time
- before you hurt yourself I think that you'll be doing just fine
- if you relax a little I'm glad I inspire you but Stan
- why are you so mad Try to understand that I do want you as a fan
- I just don't want you to do some crazy shit
- I seen this one shit on the news a couple weeks ago that made me sick
- Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge
- and had his girlfriend in the trunk and she was pregnant with his kid
- and in the car they found a tape but they didn't say who it was to
- Come to think about it his name was... it was you
- Damn
