Jimmy DestriAbout
“Poets Problem”, the B-side to “(I’m Always Touched by Your) Presence, Dear”, and later included as a bonus track on the 1994 and 2001 reissues of Plastic Letters, is a piano ballad alluding to drug use and 70’s-era ghosting. Jimmy Destri admitted this outright:
I was doing a line. It was the ‘70’s...
Poets Problem Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Poet's problem, patron saint
Puts me in the place I'm in
Passion's letter, poison pen
On these two things I can depend
[Chorus]
You will write your number, that's not all
I will not be there when you call
I think I'll do a line and then again...
[Verse 2]
Dirty dealer's school of thought
An armchair for the strength you've lost
The TV set's been on all night
You were wrong and I was right
[Chorus]
You will write your number on the wall
I will not be there when you call
I think I'll do a line and then again...
