One thing was leading to the next,
I bit off more than I could chew
I had the power to sign the cheques,
it wasn't difficult to do
I couldn't stay and face the music,
so many reasons why
I won't be sending postcards
from Paraguay

I robbed a bank full of dinero,
a great big mountain of dough
so it was goodbye companero
and cheerio
I couldn't stay and face the music,
so many reasons why
I won't be sending postcards
from Paraguay

I never meant to be a cheater,
but there was blood on the wall
I had to steal from Peter,
to pay what I owed to Paul
I couldn't stay and face the music,
so many reasons why
I won't be sending postcards
from Paraguay
This song is from the album "Shangri-La".
