Lyrics

Waiting for the sky to peel
Grateful for my next meal
Never gonna walk away
Gonna bow my heart and pray

Waiting for the well to dig
Raising my pet pig
Let her out the gate
She try to run off, but I say “Wait.”

Never know no wrong
In any angel song
When you make matter great
All you wanna do is emulate

Waiting for the light to bend
What do you recommend?
I’m swinging like a pendulum
I’m hard like a gymnasium

Waiting for eyes to dry
Let me now specify
A few words here will suffice
I’ll try to remain as concise

Waiting for a wad of cash
If this song’s a smash
There is some allure
I’ll practice my signature

Waiting for the sky to peel
Grateful for my next meal
Never gonna walk away
Gonna bow my heart and pray

Waiting for the natal nurse
Torn up in reverse
Tossin’ somethin’ in ‘na kitty and
Steerin’ clear of the pity

Waiting for a fresh campaign
One that does pertain
On which I can rely
And don’t have to justify

Waiting for a cord to yank
Or a rusty chain to clank
That never stood no chance
Of being caught with its pants down

Waiting for the common law
Got one last hurrah
Thick-skinned like a moccasin
And strung-out like a violin

Waiting for a wad of cash
If this song’s a smash
There is some allure
I’ll practice my signature
