“Dear Abby” is an advice column that started in 1956 and still carries on today, albeit by the daughter of the original writer. In the case of this song, the (fictional) letter being written comes from a county coroner who, not being able to afford meat to feed his family with, decides to use parts...
[Intro]
Dear Abby:
Got a problem...
[Verse 1]
I'm a decent, underpaid
Hardworking county coroner
It's important that my family eats meat
At least three times a week
But we just can't afford to
With prices the way they are
So, I bring home some choice cuts
From my autopsy subjects
Just mix in the Tuna Helper and ta-da!
[Refrain]
Dear Abby:
Got a problem...
[Verse 2]
The whole family thinks
My new meals are delicious
They ask me, "What's your secret?"
Abby, I think they're getting suspicious
My smartass eight-year-old keeps asking
"Where's all the meat?
The red dye #2 kind that's kept in the fridge"
If they find out the truth
I don't think they'll understand
[Refrain]
Abby, what do I tell my family?
[Outro]
Dear Reaganomics victim:
Consult your clergyman
Make sure the body's blessed
And everything should be just fine
Just fine...
