verse 1 Sometimes I wag my finger Sometimes I shake my fist I?m writing you a letter I?m sending you a kiss I?m sending you some money To buy a pair of shoes ?Cause you?ve grown out of the last ones I know I?m losing you Instrumental verse 2 I taught you how to save it And I taught you how to spend But I never taught you anything How to keep or make a friend I?m sending you some money To buy a pair of socks But you never wore ?em anyhow And a little money talks Instrumental verse 3 Winter?s coming on now I turn the clocks back an hour I changed the double-windows And cut the last of summer?s flowers I?m wishing you were here To help me with these chores Or just to build a fire And we can sit and watch it as it roars Instrumental Outro I?m sending you a letter I?m sending you a kiss
