Tell the Kids That I Said Hey

from Monk on the Run EP [2011] by Todd Portnowitz

lyrics

I’m so broke
It’s not funny
But you’ve got all your money saved
And you love me.

Outstanding loans
And awful credit
But you told me forget it you’d
Wipe the slate clean.

My girl
Let’s me have her car
Even when I travel far
It’s no big deal

And my friends,
Whenever they’re in town
She stays at her parents house
And that’s for real

Weekdays
She’s out on the job
I wake up at one o’clock
And fix a drink

And just when
I feel inspired
She comes home all tired out
You know, it makes me think

Well maybe
We’re not meant to be
This just isn’t right for me
I need some space

But every time
You come crying
Baby let’s keep trying I’ll
Change my ways

It’s ok
I’m only far away
Just wire me my pay
Think of me and pray
and tell the kids that I said, "Hey."
Hey, don’t you fade away
I wouldn’t last a day
When I say stay you stay
And I’m begging you to stay
Stay

I’m so broke
It’s not funny
But you’ve got all your money saved
