Elvis Costello - Waiting For The End Of The World Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • The man from the television crawled into the train.
  • I wonder who hes gonna stick it in this time.
  • Everyone was looking for a little entertainment,
  • So theyll 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 touching all the girls were to 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 youre coming
  • cause you really started something.
  • Things got back to normal as the train began to roll again.
  • We got to the station about twenty minutes later.
  • The legendary hitchhiker says that he knows where its at.
  • Now hed 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 youre 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 dont throw out the lifeline till theyre clean out of reach.
