letra de waiting for the end of the world [live, el mocambo 1978] - elvis costello
[verse 1]
the man from the television crawled into the train
i wonder who he’s going to 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
[pre-chorus]
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 touching all the girls who were too scared to call out
n0body was saying anything at all
[chorus]
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
[verse 2]
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
[pre-chorus]
with his two-tone bible and his funny cigarettes
his suntan lotion and his castanets
[chorus]
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
[verse 3]
and then, the bride, the groom, the congregation and the priest
all got onto the train when we were three stations east
hiding from a scandal in the national press
they had been trying to get married since they stole the wedding dress
[pre-chorus]
you may see them drowning as you stroll along the beach
but don’t roll out the lifeline till they’re clean out of reach
[outro]
waiting for the end of the world
waiting for the end of the world
waiting for the end of the world
waiting for the end of the world
hey!
i’ve been waiting
i’ve been waiting
i’ve been waiting
you’ve been waiting
waiting for you
waiting for you
so long
so long
so long
so long, so long, soooooooooo long
dear lord…
