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


(REPEAT AND FADE)
