Lyrics

One thing was leading to the next

Beginning of a series of events

I bit off more than I could chew

Taking on more than one can handle

I had the power to sign the checks

Having the authority to authorize payments

It wasn't difficult to do

Task was not challenging


I couldn't stay and face the music

Avoiding facing the consequences

So many reasons why

Multiple justifications for avoidance

I won't be sending postcards

Expressing the decision not to send postcards from Paraguay

From Paraguay

-

From Paraguay

-

From Paraguay

I robbed a bank full of dinero

Committing a crime by stealing money

A great big mountain of dough

A large sum of stolen money

So it was goodbye Campanero

Farewell to a companion or partner

And cheerio

Saying goodbye


I couldn't stay and face the music

Avoidance of facing consequences reiterated

So many reasons why

Reiteration of multiple reasons to avoid facing the consequences

I won't be sending postcards

Reiteration of the decision not to send postcards from Paraguay

From Paraguay

From Paraguay

From Paraguay

I never meant to be a cheater

Unintentional betrayal or infidelity

But there was blood on the wall

A violent incident

But I had to steal from Peter

Robbing Peter to pay Paul, resorting to unethical measures

To pay what I owed to Paul

Settling one debt by incurring another


I couldn't stay and face the music

Continued avoidance of consequences

So many reasons why

Reiteration of various reasons for avoidance

I won't be sending postcards

Final confirmation of the decision not to send postcards from Paraguay

From Paraguay

From Paraguay

From Paraguay
