Waiting For The End Of The World |
The man from the television crawled into the train |
I wonder who he’s gonna stick it in this time |
Everyone was looking for a little entertainment |
So they’ll probably pull his hands off when they find out his name |
And then they shut down the power all along the line |
And we got stuck in the tunnel where no lights shine |
They got to touchin', all the girls were scared to call out |
Nobody was saying anything at all |
We were waiting for the end of the world |
Waiting for the end of the world |
Waiting for the end of the world |
Dear Lord, I sincerely hope you’re coming |
'Cause you really started something |
Things got back to normal as the train began to roll again |
We got to the station about 20 minutes later |
The legendary hitch-hiker says that he knows where it’s at Now he’d like to go to Spain or somewhere like that |
With his two-tone Bible and his funny cigarettes |
His suntan lotion and his castanets |
He was waiting for the end of the world |
Waiting for the end of the world |
Waiting for the end of the world |
Dear Lord, I sincerely hope you’re coming |
'Cause you really started something |
And then the bride, the groom, the congregation and the priest |
All got onto the train when we were three stations east, yeah |
Hiding from a scandal in the national press |
They had been trying to get married since they stole the wedding dress |
You may see them drowning as you stroll along the beach |
But don’t throw out the lifeline till they’re clean out of reach |
Waiting for the end of the world |
Waiting for the end of the world… |
