Mother's waiting in the kitchen
The elephant's waiting in the zoo
The teacher's waiting in the classroom
And I am waiting here for you

And the audience is waiting
For the show that won't begin
The artist's waiting at the back door
Because nobody let him in, no, no

Why did she go? She said, there's no tomorrow
How did she know? Did anybody tell her?
I can't explain, I'm sitting in the corner
Staring at the wall and she won't be back again

Louise was waiting for a lover
First he paid and then he came
Now she's cooking for a baby
The client wasn't seen again, no, no

Why did she go? She said there's no tomorrow
How did she know? Did anybody tell her?
I can't explain, I'm sitting in the corner
Staring at the wall and she won't be back again

It's time you started to think seriously
About your future and you're dreaming, yeah
She said and didn't leave no room for doubt
That if I took her meaning, there was no longer dreaming
It's just a perfect screaming

Oh my God

Why did she go? She said there's no tomorrow
How did she know? Did anybody tell her?
I can't explain, I'm sitting in the corner
Staring at the wall and she won't be back again

Why did she go? She said there's no tomorrow
How did she know? Did anybody tell her?
I can't explain, I'm sitting in the corner and I'm waiting
Staring at the wall and I'm waiting
And I'm waiting, waiting, waiting
She's back again, ooh yeah
