Lyrics for Waiting For The End Of The World by Elvis Costello:
| | | Artist: | Elvis Costello |
| | Album: | My Aim Is True | | Track: | Waiting For The End Of The World | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 80 | | | | Lyrics: | The man from the television crawled into the train.
I wonder who he's gonna stick it in this
time.
Everyone was looking for a little entertainment,
So they'll 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 touchin' 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 you're 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 it's
at.
Now he'd 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 you're 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 don't throw out the lifeline till they're clean out of reach.
Waiting
for the end of the world. (repeat and fade | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
