I can’t stand waiting anymore
Waiting to know whether I will be sore
Or happy when I find out more
It’s affecting me down to the core
I don’t feel like I can take it anymore.
Nervous tension, fear of losing
It would be easier to start snoozing
Or maybe I should start boozing
Damn I’m starting to feel woozy.
Clock ticks by slow at first
Later faster like a ticking bomb
So loud my eardrums might burst
Why does waiting take so long?!
Trying to hang I tell myself I know
That there is only a short time to go
Before I will finally know
Whether things will end high or low.
Sick it’s a Friday that this happened on
I thought I’d be off today to write bird songs
Instead I’m ordered to wait all day to carry on
A high tension high stakes telephone call.
It’s sick and twisted this tense tense life!
Does anyone else have this kind of strife?
How do they continue to survive?
How do they stay alive?
If I win, my day will end with glee
If I lose, I’ll end my day unhappily
Either way before that can be
Clammy hands and insanity
Work a war against me.
But I know that when the time comes
I won’t act like a stupid nervous bum
But a rather a quite intelligent chum
Because there is important work to be done
And I won’t leave anything undone
And will be again the one
That won.
