   Remember when you bid my route

   It seemed just like a fairy tale

   Your gaze so strong, your arm so stout

   Then you yanked our marriage from the mail

   I loved the way you pulled me down

   You'd hit the street and really sail

   But someone else then came around

   And yanked our marriage from the mail

   Her name was Dee, (PS: a tramp!)

   So charming she in each detail

   I tried to warn she was a vamp

   But she yanked our marriage from the mail

    I felt for you through wind and rain

   Through ice and snow and sleet and hail

   And all the while I bore the pain

   When you yanked our marriage from the mail

   The days wore on, I saw you less

   I wondered just where did I fail

   And then a new flooz, FSS*

   Did yank our marriage from the mail

   So here I stand, your faithful friend

   Off to the side so old and pale

   In loneliness my days I'll spend

   For you've yanked our marriage from the mail
