Because they deserve us
people will come from all around
to use my Postal Service.
I'll-gonna buy my own USPS
put it in the back room of
Coco Joe's Bar & Grill located
deep in the heart of Algona.
Now if that doesn't give you a chill
I don't know what else will.
I'll-gonna blot each stamp with a dot
of Irish Whiskey and enjoy a draft
while licking postage stamps.
Gonna-be Bards, know this,
your verse can get more perverse
if you mail them through my
Postal Service.
I'll-gonna deliver your High School Letter
seal it with a kiss that'll make it better.
You can pick it up from the back room
of Coco Joe's Tavern whenever you
fly by on your broom
or float in on a dish anytime you wish.
I'll-gonna buy a Post Office to call my own.
Locate it in a room stocked full of stamps
that really do stick
and where I won't be bothered with politics.
I'll-gonna buy myself a Postal Service
put it in the heart of Algona.
Yes, I'll-gonna put it in Algona.
