Lyrics:
I sat down and wrote this letter Telling you that I felt better Since you've gone and I was free I'm so happy I have so little time to spare now I'm wanted almost everywhere now I make out like Casanova Friends are always coming over I signed my name as if I meant it Sealed it with a kiss and sent it The letter had improved my mood Happy in my solitude But halfway home I changed my tune And when I saw my lonely room The mirror caught my eye When I sit down, I cry Big lie, small world It was a big lie, small world I had to intercept that letter Telling you that I was better I raced to catch the postman's van He was leaving as I ran I missed the bus, I missed the train I end up walking in the rain Big dog chased me down the street Hadn't had a bite to eat Feeling sorry for myself And wishing I was someone else I walked across the city Because I couldn't stand your pity Big lie, small world It was a big lie, small world The place you live looks opulent And obviously a higher rent Than our cozy little room I have this sense of doom Your landlord says you're out of town But your new boyfriend's always around The hour was getting late So I sit down and wait Here's the postman with my letter Coming down the path he better Give that thing to me I have to make him see Begging doesn't do the trick He thinks that I'm a lunatic But then who comes upon the scene But your new boyfriend, Mr. Clean I hit the postman, hit your lover Grabbed the letter, ran for cover The police arrived in time for tea They said they'd like to question me But I can only curse my fate I'll have to face the magistrate It hasn't been the best of days I'd like to fly away Big lie, small world Big lie, small world It was a big lie, small world Big lie, small world
