lyrics

Dear paul, I’m writing you for a favor,
I found your address in a book
Of celebrities

I was wondering if you knew how to get a hold of Helen
I promise I’m no psycho
Just obsessed with her

Oh, dear paul, I know that I’m asking an awful lot of you
But I don’t want her fan club
Or a note return to sender

I’m just a fourteen year old boy
What could I do?
What could I possibly do to her?

I live with my parents and I watch her movies everyday
They don’t understand, so…

I need to speak to her
I need to sing to her
Please, I wrote this song for her.

Oh, dear paul, helen’s address is unlisted
But I know that you two work
Together everyday

I didn’t like your character in “Aliens”
But I’m willing to forget
If you give me her number

I’m just a boy with acne scars on his face and back
What could I possibly do?

I need to speak to her.
I need to sing to her.
Please, I wrote this song for her.

Billy Armijo's shimmering guitar work and Brad Turner's Motown-inspired bass patterns drive the tunes out of your speakers and into your heart. ... more
