| 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 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 20 minutes later
|
| The legendary hitch-hiker 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
|
| Waiting for the end of the world… |
