Postcards From Paraguay

One thing was leading to the next,

I bit off more than I could chew

I had the power to sign the cheques,

it wasn't difficult to do

I couldn't stay and face the music,

so many reasons why

I won't be sending postcards

from Paraguay



I robbed a bank full of dinero,

a great big mountain of dough

so it was goodbye companero

and cheerio

I couldn't stay and face the music,

so many reasons why

I won't be sending postcards

from Paraguay



I never meant to be a cheater,

but there was blood on the wall

I had to steal from Peter,

to pay what I owed to Paul

I couldn't stay and face the music,

so many reasons why

I won't be sending postcards

from Paraguay
