he’s got a cabinet in an old wood desk
the kind that shudders when you open the door
and in a box there’s some stamps
from germany to j-pan
the kind you can’t find in any gift store

he’s got the steadiest fist
an expert philatelist
he knows the thumbnails and where they’re all from

but while he looks at his collection
all it is is introspection
of all the landmarks he’s never been to one

and like the shoemaker’s son
he doesn’t have what they suppose he does
and while he’s got stationary in tons
he never sends any letters to anyone

and like the shoemaker’s son
he doesn’t have what they suppose he does
and while it looks like he’s got all the money
inside the cabinet he’s got next to none (ow)

he met a girl who watched the local news
and thought she knew everything she could conceive
and maybe she was right about it
but he knew she liked an outfit
and she dressed up to talk to her tv
she ran for prime minister
and a team ironed her shirt
and she made policy from her living room

she had a nation beside her
they said, “there’s n0body brighter”
but then her same old answers had them confused (ah)

and like the shoemaker’s son
she doesn’t have what they suppose she does
they thought the answers were in her arm chair
but then it turned out that the answers aren’t there (aren’t there, aren’t there)

see this philatelist
and the stamps of places he’s never been to
it turns out that’s the philatelist pursuit
