+=== Lyrics ===
+(VERY NSFW)
+My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
+Got out of bed at all
+The morning rain clouds up my window
+And I can't see at all
+And even if I could it'll all be gray
+But your picture on my wall
+It reminds me, that it's not so bad
+It's not so bad
+My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
+Got out of bed at all
+The morning rain clouds up my window (window)
+And I can't see at all
+And even if I could it'll all be gray
+But your picture on my wall
+It reminds me, that it's not so bad
+It's not so bad
+Dear Slim, I wrote you but you still ain't callin'
+I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom
+I sent two letters back in autumn, you must not've got 'em
+There probably was a problem at the post office or somethin'
+Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em
+But anyways, fuck it, what's been up, man? How's your daughter?
+My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm 'bout to be a father
+If I have a daughter, guess what I'ma call her?
+I'ma name her Bonnie
+I read about your uncle Ronnie too, I'm sorry
+I had a friend kill himself over some bitch who didn't want him
+I know you probably hear this every day, but I'm your biggest fan
+I even got the underground shit that you did with Skam
+I got a room full of your posters and your pictures, man
+I like the shit you did with Rawkus too, that shit was phat
+Anyways, I hope you get this, man, hit me back
+Just to chat, truly yours, your biggest fan
+This is Stan
+My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
+Got out of bed at all
+The morning rain clouds up my window (window)
+And I can't see at all
+And even if I could it'll all be gray
+But your picture on my wall
+It reminds me, that it's not so bad
+It's not so bad
+Dear Slim, you still ain't called or wrote, I hope you have a chance
+I ain't mad, I just think it's fucked up you don't answer fans
+If you didn't wanna talk to me outside your concert
+You didn't have to, but you could've signed an autograph for Matthew
+That's my little brother, man, he's only six years old
+We waited in the blistering cold for you
+For four hours and you just said, "No"
+That's pretty shitty, man, you're like his fuckin' idol
+He wants to be just like you, man, he likes you more than I do
+I ain't that mad though, I just don't like bein' lied to
+Remember when we met in Denver, you said if I'd write you you would write back
+See, I'm just like you in a way
+I never knew my father neither
+He used to always cheat on my mom and beat her
+I can relate to what you're saying in your songs
+So when I have a shitty day, I drift away and put 'em on
+'Cause I don't really got shit else, so that shit helps when I'm depressed
+I even got a tattoo of your name across the chest
+Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds
+It's like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me
+See, everything you say is real, and I respect you 'cause you tell it
+My girlfriend's jealous 'cause I talk about you 24/7
+But she don't know you like I know you Slim, no one does
+She don't know what it was like for people like us growin' up, you gotta call me, man
+I'll be the biggest fan you'll ever lose
+Sincerely yours, Stan
+P.S. we should be together too
+My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
+Got out of bed at all
+The morning rain clouds up my window (window)
+And I can't see at all
+And even if I could it'll all be gray
+But your picture on my wall
+It reminds me, that it's not so bad
+It's not so bad
+Dear Mr. I'm Too Good To Call Or Write My Fans
+This will be the last package I ever send your ass
+It's been six months and still no word, I don't deserve it?
+I know you got my last two letters, I wrote the addresses on 'em perfect
+So this is my cassette I'm sending you, I hope you hear it
+I'm in the car right now, I'm doing ninety on the freeway
+Hey Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka
+You dare me to drive?
+You know the song by Phil Collins, "In the Air of the Night"
+About that guy who could have saved that other guy from drowning
+But didn't, then Phil saw it all, then at a a show he found him?
+That's kinda how this is, you coulda rescued me from drowning
+Now it's too late, I'm on a thousand downers now, I'm drowsy
+And all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call
+I hope you know I ripped all of your pictures off the wall
+I love you Slim, we coulda been together, think about it
+You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it
+And when you dream I hope you can't sleep and you scream about it
+I hope your conscience eats at you and you can't breathe without me
+See Slim, shut up bitch, I'm tryna talk
+Hey Slim, that's my girlfriend screamin' in the trunk
+But I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I ain't like you
+'Cause if she suffocates, she'll suffer more, and then she'll die too
+Well, gotta go, I'm almost at the bridge now
+Oh shit, I forgot, how am I supposed to send this shit out?
+My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
+Got out of bed at all
+The morning rain clouds up my window (window)
+And I can't see at all
+And even if I could it'll all be gray
+But your picture on my wall
+It reminds me, that it's not so bad
+It's not so bad
+Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner but I just been busy
+You said your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she?
+Look, I'm really flattered you would call your daughter that
+And here's an autograph for your brother
+I wrote it on a Starter cap
+I'm sorry I didn't see you at the show, I must've missed you
+Don't think I did that shit intentionally just to diss you
+But what's this shit you said about you like to cut your wrists too?
+I say that shit just clownin', dawg, come on, how fucked up is you?
+You got some issues, Stan, I think you need some counseling
+To help your ass from bouncing off the walls when you get down some
+And what's this shit about us meant to be together?
+That type of shit'll make me not want us to meet each other
+I really think you and your girlfriend need each other
+Or maybe you just need to treat her better
+I hope you get to read this letter, I just hope it reaches you in time
+Before you hurt yourself, I think that you'll be doin' just fine
+If you relax a little, I'm glad I inspire you but Stan
+Why are you so mad? Try to understand, that I do want you as a fan
+I just don't want you to do some crazy shit
+I seen this one shit on the news a couple weeks ago that made me sick
+Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge
+And had his girlfriend in the trunk, and she was pregnant with his kid
+And in the car they found a tape, but they didn't say who it was to
+Come to think about, his name was, it was you
+Damn!
