I went to the post office this morning
To see an old familiar face
Behind the lines of people
With parcels sealed with strings and tapes
The old familiar face was hard at work
I made my way up to the counter
The old familiar face began to smile
But like my visits prior
The smile just couldn't reach his eyes
I knew right then and there that old familiar face
Would say that old familiar phrase
Nothing today
I knew right then and there that old familiar face
Would say that old familiar phrase
Nothing today"
