My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'll all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that it's not so bad
It's not so bad
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window (window)
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'll all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that it's not so bad
It's not so bad

Dear Tyson, I wrote you but you still ain't callin'
I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom
I sent two letters back in autumn, you must not've got 'em
There probably was a problem at the post office or somethin'
Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em
But anyways, what's been up, man? How's your daughters?
My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm 'bout to be a father
If I have a daughter, guess what I'ma call her?
I'ma name her Fury
I read about your uncle Hughie too, I'm sorry
I had a friend kill himself over some broad who didn't want him
I know you probably hear this every day, but I'm your biggest fan
I got a room full of your posters and your pictures, man
Anyways, I hope you get this, man, hit me back
Just to chat, truly yours, your biggest fan
This is Stan
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window (window)
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'll all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that it's not so bad
It's not so bad
Dear Tyson, you still ain't called or wrote, I hope you have a chance
I ain't mad, I just think it's wrong you don't answer fans
If you didn't wanna talk to me outside your fights
You didn't have to, but you could've signed an autograph for Miniq
That's my little brother, man, he's only six years old
We waited in the blistering cold for you
For four hours and you just said, "No"
That's pretty crappy, man, you're like his idol
He wants to be just like you, man, he likes you more than I do
I ain't that mad though, I just don't like bein' lied to
Remember when we met in Manchester, you said if I'd write you you would write back
See, I'm just like you in a way
I never knew my father neither
He used to always cheat on my mom and beat her
I can relate to what you're saying in your songs
So when I have a crappy day, I drift away and put 'em on
'Cause I don't really got else, so that helps when I'm depressed
I even got a tattoo of your name across my face
Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds
It's like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me
See, everything you say is real, and I respect you 'cause you tell it
My girlfriend's jealous 'cause I talk about you 24/7
But she don't know you like I know you Tyson, no one does
She don't know what it was like for people like us growin' up, you gotta call me, man
I'll be the biggest fan you'll ever lose
Sincerely yours, Stan
P.S. we should be together too
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window (window)
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'll all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that it's not so bad
It's not so bad
Dear Mr. I'm Too Good To Call Or Write My Fans
This will be the last package I ever send you
It's been six months and still no word, I don't deserve it?
I know you got my last two letters, I wrote the addresses on 'em perfect
So this is my cassette I'm sending you, I hope you hear it
I'm in the car right now, I'm doing ninety on the freeway
Hey Tyson, I drank a fifth of vodka
You dare me to drive?
You know the song by Phil Collins, "In the Air of the Night"
About that guy who could have saved that other guy from drowning
But didn't, then Phil saw it all, then at a a show he found him?
That's kinda how this is, you coulda rescued me from drowning
Now it's too late, I'm on a thousand downers now, I'm drowsy
And all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call
I hope you know I ripped all of your pictures off the wall
I love you Tyson, we coulda been together, think about it
You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it
And when you dream I hope you can't sleep and you scream about it
I hope your conscience eats at you and you can't breathe without me
See Tyson, shut up, I'm tryna talk
Hey Tyson, that's my girlfriend screamin' in the trunk
But I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I ain't like you
'Cause if she suffocates, she'll suffer more, and then she'll die too
Well, gotta go, I'm almost at the bridge now
Oh ****, I forgot, how am I supposed to send this out?
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window (window)
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'll all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me, that it's not so bad
It's not so bad
Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner but I just been busy
You said your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she?
Look, I'm really flattered you would call your daughter that
And here's an autograph for your brother
I wrote it on a Starter cap
I'm sorry I didn't see you at the fight, I must've missed you
Don't think I did that intentionally just to diss you
But what's this you said about you like to cut your wrists too?
I say that just clownin', dawg, come on, how messed up is you?
You got some issues, Stan, I think you need some counselling
To help your ass from bouncing off the walls when you get down some
And what's this about us meant to be together?
That type of crap make me not want us to meet each other
I really think you and your girlfriend need each other
Or maybe you just need to treat her better
I hope you get to read this letter, I just hope it reaches you in time
Before you hurt yourself, I think that you'll be doin' just fine
If you relax a little, I'm glad I inspire you but Stan
Why are you so mad? Try to understand, that I do want you as a fan
I just don't want you to do some crazy
I seen this one on the news a couple weeks ago that made me sick
Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge
And had his girlfriend in the trunk, and she was pregnant with his kid
And in the car they found a tape, but they didn't say who it was to
Come to think about, his name was, it was you
Damn!

When you sing this in your head as you read along: sing Dido's part in young Mike Tyson's voice!

He gained me as a fan after showing amazing resilience and heart against Wilder 3. Before that I was summarily unimpressed.

I still wish he hit a bit harder (and lost 25 lbs), but he's a very good champion. He only needs another decent win to cement his place in history imo

kostya by ko · Apr 11, 2023

If he fights Wilder a 4th time, I hope Wilder wins !!!!!

That's one of the biggest insults possible on this forum.

catchwtboxing · Apr 11, 2023

Yes. The combination of Chisora III and ducking Usyk and I no longer give **** about him as a fighter. The only fight of his I will watch is Usyk. Other than that he is persona non grata.

drenlou · Apr 11, 2023

Can't say yes as I never liked the big duck.

RockyMarciano · Apr 11, 2023

He's one of the few left in the sport I care to watch anymore...not that I'm a huge fan. Youtubers...rotten promoters...garbage fights that are PPV every time...I'm at the end of my patience with the sport in general.

Yeah but I'm ready to forgive him if he takes Joyce to his next fight.

You will surely be disappointed when it is the winner of Chisora-Whyte III.

Come to think of it, maybe it will be the loser.

mrbigshot · Apr 11, 2023

Yes , fury played his political games and his bluff backfired when it got obvious he is not in shape for usyk im april - but usyk is none better when he carefully circumnavigates around wilder and joyce to choose with dubois the lowest risk possible covering himself behind the 'mandatory' argumentation .

Aj at least openly admits he needs another weak fight to build up.

Its not only about fury avoiding a high risk event.

ikrasevic · Apr 12, 2023

I can't say I'm a fan of Tyson Fury. Nor have I ever been (I'm more of a boxing fan). Tyson Fury won my sympathy with the things he did in the ring. Well, the same way he can lose my sympathy - with the things he does in the ring.

MidniteProwler · Apr 12, 2023

No I will always love Fury he is a legend I am a ride or die fan with my favourites just like I was with Anthony Mundine and still am with Kambosos.

Mr Stagger Lee · Apr 12, 2023

Never seen anything special about him. What's he had, 6 championship fights, 3 of those against the same guy. His record doesn't not compare against the likes of Lennox Lewis and many others. Reputation built on and supported by casual fans. Sad.

He lost me as a fan way before this. Can't remember exactly when it was, sometime between the second and third Wilder fights I think. Can't really pinpoint any particular instance that turned me off him either, just that I started to find him insufferable and found myself wanting to root against him. It's the same thing that turned me on him as a fan to begin with, in reverse.
