I've heard about a great big swindle
I read about it in a book
The book flew out the window
Was later found by thieves and crooks
And now they're singin' Hallelujah
I'm wonderin' just what did they find
They say, "What's it to ya?
Just take a place in line"
And wait, so I wait, I wait and wait and I
I'm one of a few survivors
In a drawer labeled lost and found
Moon travelers and deep sea divers
Whose oxygen supply ran out
Now maybe if their Gods be willin'
They'll give us somethin', fill our empty cups
Sit down in the boat, don't spill it
Or we'll just have to line back up
And wait, so we wait, we wait and wait, yes we wait
And we wait, we will wait, we will wait 'til we
You can hear it in the beat they march to
And you can feel the Earth shake when they start to dance
You can tell by the way they move you
It's not murder, it's an act of faith, baby
And as the world moves faster
Whiplashin' us round and round
It's quite a slow disaster
But people keep on fallin' down
As we wait, we wait and we wait
We wait and we wait, we wait, Hallelujah
