Lyrics

I have a lot of weapons to fight
I got my claws, I got cutlasses
I got guns, I got dynamite
I got a whole lot to fight
I'll fight, I'll fight, I'll fight
I will fight, I will fight, I will fight
Members of the Congress
I now have the high privilege and distinct honor
Of presenting to you the President of the United States
It's only the postman
There's no need to be alarmed
He's just delivering the post, man
He don't mean me any harm
And understand, come rain or snow
He is always on the go
Even death could never slow the postman
And hurricane winds and high tides
He is always by my side
I have never learned to hide from the postman
I sing my song, I sing my song
I sing my brave little song
I sing my song to the postman
To the postman
To the postman
To the postman
Tuxedos and guns, sir
Become the symbols of a time
And rivers of blood, sir
In a sunny foreign climb
I keep it with lies and lies
We embrace what we despise
So what's in the ride of the postman?
And love and hate are all fashion and obsolete
Mere voices in the street to the postman
I sing my song, I sing my brave little song
I sing my song to the postman
To the postman
To the postman
To the postman
I want to do what is fair
I want to do what is right
And I want to do what is principled
Society, it's like any animal
Whatever happened in Jonestown
It's gotta live
Our government and the CIA was in close touch with Jones
And our government used Jones for a mass mind control experiment
It's gotta eat
Even the New World Order cannot guarantee an era of perpetual peace
This was control of individuals, control of groups
Control of both occupations, this was group behavior
There's some good things about war
The hard work of freedom still calls us forward
There's just too many people in the world
I got a lot of weapons to fight
I got my claws, I got cutlasses
There's too many people
I got guns, I got dynamite
There's too many people
I got a whole lot to fight
I'll fight, I'll fight, I'll fight
I'll fight, I'll fight, I'll fight
Postman
Postman
Postman
And I'm not just in the on-the-deck circle anymore
I'm at the plate
