waiting for the drugs to keep me alive.
In the meantime; someone's ovulating
waiting for results; anticipating.
Waiting for a bus, waiting for a train,
waiting outside and waiting in the rain,
waiting for a ride, contemplating;
waiting on the corner, I'm still waiting.
Waiting for an ambulance, waiting in pain,
waiting for a blue light, waiting in vain,
legs won't move, they're steadily inflating,
folk watch over me as I lay waiting.
Waiting to wake up. hallucinating,
the enemy is there, waiting, hating.
Gas masks on boys, don't delay by waiting
fumbling about like you're fornicating.
Waiting for a signal, waiting to advance,
waiting in a trench in the mud in France,
waiting for sunrise it's so frustrating.
In no mans land they're no longer waiting.
Waiting in the hospital for a scan,
in the waiting room waiting for a plan.
The rest of the world is procreating
looking at the clock as I'm still waiting.
Waiting for the day, waiting for the night,
waiting alone hoping it's all right.
Waiting for some news it's irritating,
waiting for an x ray, sitting waiting.
Waiting for some news, I'm waiting to hear,
waiting in a queue, I want to disappear.
Is it worth my while overstating
just how much time I seem to spend waiting?
