To commemorate Valentine's Day 2001, The Operators and Ruby Lashes released this limited-edition (numbered series of 200) split 7-inch record on white vinyl, with cover art by Christy McCaffrey. It's available from our online shop while supplies last.

"I love the Operators...and their song on this split 'What the Mailman Doesn't Bring' is my favorite Operators song yet. I melt everytime I get to sing along with the backing vocals during the chorus."
--GO METRIC

"WHAT THE MAILMAN DOESN'T BRING" LYRICS by The Operators
It must have been your second sense Cuz you never looked at me again The cold indifference, it tries to hide the sparkle in your eyes	I called your name in the hall last year You didn't seem to hear I wish so hard, but it never works I always feel like Such a Jerk
And...I'll stand...right here And wait...another year for your valentine The mailbox is empty every day Every Day I wait for the mailman to ring And he's not bringing Anything
"LAVENDER AND LACE" LYRICS by Ruby Lashes He says he sees death in my eyes I'm afraid he's right and if that's so is it a shame to try to figure out these memories, to set them right? water is so blue when I'm around you there is no reason to be afraid cause you smell like lavender and you feel like lace I don't mind when you call late at night I don't mind it if you say you'll leave early tonight he says he sees death in my eyes then he said goodbye
