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 greenThe 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 tideAh, just waitingYou know everything comes to a standstill
Nothing seems to make a turn
'Cause the worm's still waiting for the early bird
And the early bird's waiting for the wormAnd nobody wants to do nothing
Just waiting for a finger in the pie
And waiting for a call from a TV show
Or waiting for her uncle to die 1 2 3Everybody's waiting for something
And nothing ever turns out right
'Cause the night shift is waiting for the morning
And the burglar is waiting for the nightsCongregation is waiting for the vicar
And the vicar is waiting for the groom
The groom is waiting for his new bride
But the bride is waiting for JuneAnd everybody is just waiting
And nobody wants to settle down
They got their heads in
A holo-videoThe cretin' is waiting for U2 to come on
M-T-V again
But the producer is waiting for the blond bird
And the blond girl's waiting for himNobody wants to do nothing
Just waiting for their chips and their pie
Waiting' for a call from a big quiz show
Or waiting for some rich relation to dieYou know everything comes to a standstill
Nothing ever makes a turn
And the worm is waiting for the grass to turn green
While the early bird is waiting for the wormI don't think I can really stand it no more
I don't think I can go through it againI'm just waiting
I'm just waiting
I'm just waiting
I'm just waitingYeah, bees are waiting 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 waiting for youJust waiting
Ah, just waiting
Ah, just waiting
Ah, just waiting
