Waiting For The World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Barefooted could've beens, playing snakes and ladders
Climbing up the gravel walk
Welcome them inside and you watch their words collide
As they try to talk
Show them the door to the cold star chamber
They say "after you"
Then they all take turns waving flags, playing mastermind
Held by a thumbscrew
That's you
Yeah you
Ah that's you
Waiting for the world to come to you
Spare me the dose of your roneoed wisdom
That you think is new
`Cos good all fate's making monkeys out of small time flunkies
Like you!
That's you
Yeah you
Ah that's you
Waiting for the world, waiting for the world to come to you
(Solo)
Show them the door to the cold star chamber
They say "after you"
Then they all take turns waving flags, playing mastermind
Held by a thumbscrew
Spare me the dose of your roneoed wisdom
That you think is new
`Cos good all fate's making monkeys out of small time flunkies
Like you!
That's you
Yeah you
Ah that's you
Waiting for the world to come to you
That's you
Yeah you
Waiting for the world
Waiting for the world
Waiting
Waiting
Waiting for the world to come to you
Waiting for the world to come to you
Waiting for the world to come to you
Waiting for the world to come to you
Just waiting for the world to come to you
That's you
That's who
