I stand and I wait in line And I wait in line With a heavy head And this bottle of wine As they steal my time But I've learned to hold my own And I watch I can't shake this feeling

And a trip to the moon It was the needle and the spoon Thirty days, lord and thirty nights I'm comin' home on an airplane flight Mama waitin' at the ticket line Tell me son why do you stand there cryin' Took me away, took me away I've been feelin' so

Makes me feel like I'm a modern man In line for a number but you don't understand Like a modern man And the people behind me, they can't understand In my dream I was almost there But we're wasted And that's why we're still waiting So I wait my turn, I'm

I don't wanna be the last man standin' Or, wait a minute, maybe I do If you don't mind I'll start a new line And decide after thinkin' it through Go on in front if you're in such a hurry On second thought, maybe I do Yeah maybe I do Like heaven ain't

My blue jeans Will last me all my life, oh yes So should we I'm spending all this time You don't even know me I'm hanging from the tree I don't stand in line, I don't pay for clubs, fuck that But I'll wait for you I don't like to drink, I don't like to

There ain't no midnight train Comin' down the line I was standin' at the station, ten to midnight in the rain I was mindin' my own bus'ness, waiting for that midnight train Nobody in sight, starin' at my shoes, I took out my paper to find me some good

By the way I tried to say Ooh, ah, guess you never meant it And there's a light on I'd be there waiting for Standing in line to See the show tonight Standing in line To see the show tonight

Everything shines, Hey, come this May, We'll be running in the sun again, your time will come. You're just a young broken heart. Been out sleepin' in the yard, how could you be so dumb? All we losers stand in line just waiting for our time. Broken angel
