From the recording Prehistoric (Volume One)
Lyrics
WAITING ROOM
We’ve all got a date in the waiting room
One room fits all
I thought I heard some people talking
There’s a clock on the wall
There’s a clock, but it isn’t moving
Gray tile on the floor
I like the patterns in the gray tile
But what’s behind the swinging door?
All of us in the waiting room
Thrown together in the waiting room
All of us in the waiting room
Forever in the waiting room
Always lots of seats in the waiting room
One room fits all
Old ladies and little babies
Just learning to crawl
There’s a line, and it’s moving slowly
Gray tile on the floor
I trace the patterns in the gray tile
But what’s behind the swinging door?
All of us in the waiting room…
Footsteps in the corridor
The elevator stops on four
I’ll be here tomorrow
See you all tomorrow
All of us in the waiting room…
