Don't bother me
I ain't got time
For your misery
It's not that I'm too busy
It's just that I'm waiting for the
(ooh, ooh)
I'm waiting for the (ooh, ooh)
I'm waiting for the world
To find somebody else
To deal with all the scum
I'm doin' fine
In my green chair
Watching Rush and drinkin' a beer
What's that? He just said something funny
(ooh, ooh)
He's waiting for the (ooh, ooh)
He's waiting for the world
To find somebody else
To deal with all the scum
What ever happened to the way it was?
The way it was
What ever happened to my way?
My way, my way
(solo)
Don't make a sound
There's someone at the door
They're probably pushing
Freedom of whatever it is today
Be quiet and hope they go away
(ooh, ooh)
I'm waiting for the (ooh, ooh)
We're waiting for the world
To find somebody else
To deal with all the scum
(ooh, ooh)
I'm waiting for the (ooh, ooh)
I'm waiting for the world
To find somebody else
To deal with all the scum, oh yeah
