Waiting

Ahhhhhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
A woman waits for marriage
A woman waits for children
She waits for her big Mal to come back home
At five o'clock, or 6 o'clock
Till it's 9 o'clock, and there's no o'clock to ease the pain
Pain... she can't explain
As the woman, waits in the dark
For a spark that once was there
But isn't there
Not ever there
Alone and waiting and wailing, whining and waiting, wanting and wasting and woah
Waiting, fixating, debating, lose weighting, ice skating, lactating and so
We wait to laugh
We wait to cry
We wait for every hopeful breath
Waiting for a lousy, rotting, vicious, rancid, flushed out fetid frenzied fatal
Death
(woah woah woah woah woahwoahwoahwoah, woah woahwoahwoahwoah, wah)
