Sting

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 And sealed it with a kiss and sent it The letter headed through 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 sat down, I cried 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 a cozy little room I had 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 had 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
