Pensioner`s waiting for leap year to come
and the young singer`s waiting to sing
and there`s a gardener outside a big estate
waiting for the grass to turn green
The drunk is waiting for an easy mark
the hitchhiker is waiting for a ride
and the prisoner`s waiting for a prison break
and the surfer is waiting for the tide
Ah just waiting
You know everything comes to a standstill
nothing seems to make a turn
cause the worm`s still waitin` for the early bird
and the early bird`s waitin` for the worm
And nobody wants to do nothing
just waiting for a finger in the pie
and waitin` for a call from a TV show
or waitin` for an uncle to die 1-2-3
Everybody`s waitin` for something
and nothing ever turns out right
because the night shift is waiting for the morning
and the burglar is waiting for the night.
Congregation is waitin` for the vicar
and the vicar is waitin` for the groom
the groom is waiting for his new bride
But the bride is waitin` for June
And everybody is just waitin`
and nobody wants to settle down
They got their heads in a holo-video
The cretin is waitin for U2 to come on MTV again
but the producer is waiting for the blonde bird
and the blonde girl`s waitin` for him
Nobody wants to do nothing
just waiting for their chips and their pie
waitin` for a call from a big quiz show
or waitin` for some rich relation to die
You know everything comes to a standstill
nothing ever makes a turn
and the worm is waitin` for the grass to turn green
while the early bird is waitin` for the worm
I don`t think I can really stand it no more
I don`t think I can go through it again
I`m just waiting
I`m just waiting
I`m just waiting
I`m just waiting
Yeah bees are waitin` for honey
and I`m putting it on the back burner for now
cause everybody`s racing and fawning and skivin`
and honey I`m waitin` for you
Ah-just waitin`
Ah-just waitin`
Ah-just waitin`
Ah-just waitin`
