Okay.
[Bm]
Fell asleep last night with the TV on.
[F#] Oh, what a dream [Bm] I had.
[B] Dreamed I went and answered every single one of those late night mail order [F#] ads.
[Bm] And four to six weeks [B] later, [Am] much to my [B]
surprise,
The mailman came to my front door [F#] and I couldn't believe my [Bm] eyes.
When he brought the Vegematic and the Pocket [F#]

There was parcel post in the pantry, UPS [F#] in the hall,
[B] [Am] COD [G#m] to the ceiling, [G] [Bm] and it just couldn't pay for it all.
I [B] got the egg scrambler [D] with a [F#] Sela meal-carrying [Bm] case.

A minute [Bm] mender and a needle that'll knitter crochet.
And an autographed photographer [B] in Tintin at Six Flags over [Bm] Burbank.
[Em] [F#]
[Bm] [F#] [D] [B]
I remember dial-streaming, so I gave a mighty [F#] cheer.
When [A] I awoke, [E] it was no [C] joke, cause [Bm] all that shit was here.
So if you fall asleep with the [B] TV on, let me tell you what [F#] to do.
[B] Rip the telephone [Em] out of the wall unless you [Gm] want it [F#] to happen [B] to you.
