It's four o'clock in the morning

We're still putting the world to rights

The whiskey's started talking

There's a fire in your eyes

Conspiracy lies heavy

In every word you breathe

Contentious bones - widely known

Watering the seeds



Be sure to send a postcard

When you get there let me know

You know that I won't stop you when you go



It's five o'clock in the morning

And you're glad to be alive

The booze has finished working

The world is on your side

It's clear to see the tyranny

Was all some kind of plot

You secretly confide in me

Where there's brass there's muck



Be sure to send a postcard

When you get there let me know

You know that I won't stop you when you go

Be sure to send a postcard

When you get there let me know

I hope that you can make it on your own



It's six o'clock in the morning

There's nowhere left to hide

Now we've seen the dawn in

All that's left is our good-byes

It's hard to see the sanity

In what we call our lives

Sometimes it seems that you just need

To follow what's inside



Be sure to send a postcard

When you get there let me know

You know that I won't stop you when you go

Be sure to send a postcard

When you get there let me know

I hope that you can make it on your own
