OVERSEAS TELEGRAM

Translation by Mick Harvey & Sarah Owen


I hope that this telegram is the most beautiful telegram
Of all the telegrams you'll receive in your life
And when you read my Telegram you will begin to cry

I know that this telegram is the last telegram
Of all the telegrams that I will ever send
You will get this telegram at the Post Office in England

You will get this telegram like all the telegrams
By Overseas Telegram at the Post Office Anglais
