Song title: Ani Difranco - The Waiting Song

Edit By: 216.73.217.5

Your basic average super star
Is singing about justice
And peace
And love
And I am glaring at the radio,
Swearing
Saying thats just what I was afraid of
The system gives you just enough
To make you think that you see change
They will sing you right to sleep
And then theyll screw you just the same

But I will wait
Yes, I will wait for the truth

They think I make a big deal about nothing
But they still think im
Kinda cute
They joke about the staus quo
To break the ice
Once the ice is broken
I hope they all fall through
cause this is no joke to me
They dont fool me
With their acts of sensitivity
They too shall pass
Just like everyone
Whos only here for my ass

And I cant wait
Oh I cant wait til they get their due

Baby Ive only got a minute
Baby I have to go
A minute is all my life
Will ever allow
Lets grow old
And die together
Lets do it now
Because youll do all the jobs
No one else will do
And youll step aside
And you will let me come through
You have all my respect
Ill leave it here when I go
Maybe I never told you, baby
Maybe you dont know

But maybe if we wait
If we wait things will improve
Maybe we just wait
And things will improve
You know, theyve got to improve

Your basic average superstar
Is singing about justice
And peace
And love
And I am glaring at the radio
Swearing
Saying thats just what I was afraid of
The system gives you just enough
To make you think that you see change
Theyll sing you right to sleep
And then theyll screw you just the same

He says I know you have to go
You have gone before
We are fighting on two different fronts
Of the same war
But no matter what else
I will do
I will wait for you
