Waiting For The Big One
The wine's all drunk and so am IHere with the hoi-poloi, don't ask me whyWe're celebratin' anticipatin'; end of the yeareverybody come, everybody here- well more or lessSome already in a messI guess they're waiting for the big one.
Wonder why I'm cold. How did I get this far?Had no money, had no carI pray the snow goes, be bad if it settles'cos I follow my nose and the dried up rose petals- like the man says,Sure hope Moses knows his rosesOr we'll all be waiting for the big one.
Once I was the credit to my credit cardspent what I hadn't got, (it) wasn't hardNo trust in judgement no trust in moneySomeday I'll find myself like a bee finding honeyBut in the meantimeI'm gonna have me some funWaiting for the big one.
One too many, where ego I go tooLooking for the real thingIt don't come from what I doNo real communication moves out of my faceI'm beginning to think I'm just out of placeWon't get in too deep, I want to get some sleepTo be ready for the big oneTo be ready for the big one
