text: I woke you up at four this morning
  To whimper and to whine
  To hear myself through spit and crackle
  Of a poor long distance line
  Twelve clever ways to say I love you
  With words that always fail
  Hang up and light a cigarette
  Sit waiting for the mail
  Some flyers from department stores
  A, another get rich plan
  A bill or two, some shampoo, and a note from Ed McMahon
  Although youll always be the one in which I will confide
  Sometimes youre the razor on my private water slide
  By the way, I got your letter yesterday
  It said theres no need to be sad
  It said that some things would never ever change
  But that some already had
  And Id heard it from the corner of my ear
  How that voice makes things right
  And Im sure theres something more than memory
  Across the Maryland bridge tonight
  How ominous these undercurrents
  They crowd me now it seems
  And every time I meet you in the darkness of my dreams
  Its likely that Ill turn around and parody myself
  Imagine were in different places
  Pretend were someone else
  Well, I can be J. Edgar Hoover
  You be JFK
  As power hungry egocentrics
  Well paper fight the nights away
  Sometimes youre my nemesis
  When I am paranoid
  Sometimes I have doubts and worries
  Too strong to avoid
  By the way, I got your letter yesterday
  It said theres no need to be sad
  It said that some things would never ever change
  But that some already had
  And Id heard it from the corner of my ear
  How that voice makes things right
  And Im sure theres something more than memory
  Across the Maryland bridge tonight
  ... Maryland bridge tonight
