ZIP, ZIP, ZIP code 
ZIP, ZIP, ZIP code 

ZIP code, postman says its faster 
This way I know it won’t get past her 
ZIP code, make it get there better 
One-double-oh-three-six on the letter 

It happened 
In New York City 
I saw her 
On the very first row 

It was love at first sight 
I told her that I’d write 
Now I’m so lonely I’m writing to her 

ZIP code, postman says its faster 
This way I know it won’t get past her 
ZIP code, make it get there better 
One-double-oh-three-six on the letter 

I feel it 
Love of my life 
She feel it 
By the words I write 

ZIP, ZIP, ZIP code 
ZIP, ZIP, ZIP code 

ZIP code, postman says its faster 
This way I know it won’t get past her 
ZIP code, make it get there better 
One-double-oh-three-six on the letter 

It happened 
In New York City 
I saw her 

On the very first row 
It was love at first sight 
I told her that I’d write 
Now I’m so lonely I’m writing to her 

Zip code, postman says its faster 
This way I know it won’t get past her 
ZIP code, make it get there better 
One-double-oh-three-six on the letter
