Up and down the block

I'd ask him what the matter was

But I know that he don't talk

And the ladies treat me kindly

And furnish me with tape
给我听各种音乐带
But deep inside my heart

I know I can't escape

Speaking to some French girl

Who says she knows me well

And I would send a message

To find out if she's talked

And the mailbox is locked
邮筒也深深紧锁
