"Some Postman" is a song by the band The Presidents of the United States of America, from their fourth album Love Everybody, which was released in 2004. A single version of the song was also released through Apple's online iTunes Store.

The song was inspired when lead singer Chris Ballew sent a mixtape by post, only to be told later it hadn't arrived in the mail. "Well some postman's grooving to that"[2] he recounts saying, in the making of documentary for the music video.
