lyrics

(one two three four!)

Raymond from insurance sent an actual Christmas card
In September. He did not wait. He sent it in September.
It says "hope the car situation resolved" in beautiful handwriting
(beautiful handwriting!)
It did not resolve. Dex is in Reno now. But the card is lovely.

I have it on the fridge (on the fridge)
Between a parking ticket and a photo of my sister

Raymond from insurance!
(Raymond! Raymond!)
The most reliable man in my entire life
Raymond from insurance!
Forty minutes on hold and I made a friend

His daughter got into the college, he told me in an email
An email, from insurance, that was ninety percent daughter
I replied with three paragraphs about a girl I have never met
(never met!)
We are pen pals now. This is my life. This is genuinely my life.

Okay so this is bad. Nope nope nope.
(pause)
Actually, no. This one's fine.
This one is completely, unironically fine.
(BAND EXPLODES)

Raymond from insurance!
(Raymond! Raymond!)
The most reliable man in my entire life
Raymond from insurance!
Forty minutes on hold and I made a friend

(this is fine!)
