i take a long deep breath
i measure my words like a diplomat
i run a second spelling check
my connection’s set, here i go, no way back

ooh ooh ooh delivery failed
once again i forget, all will stay left unsaid
and there’s no way, no way, i will ever recollect

i take a long, long walk
i give an evil eye to the barking neighbour dog
the city’s filled with layered smog
i go back in and check my outbox

ooh ooh ooh delivery failed
it slipped my mind to save a draft
it sounded like somebody laughed at me
delivery failed
once again i forget, all will stay left unsaid
and there’s no way, no way, i will ever recollect

to anybody who has ever been in situations like mine
ooh oh oh
can you just move on and go better luck next time
better luck next time

ooh ooh ooh delivery failed
once again i forget, all will stay left unsaid
and there’s no way, no way, i will ever recollect
i will ever recollect
i will ever recollect
i will ever recollect
