Letra:

[English]

I am a patient boy

I wait, I wait, I wait, I wait

My time's like water down a drain

Everybody's moving, everybody's moving

Everybody's moving, moving, moving, moving

Please don't leave me to remain

In the waiting room

I don't want the news (I cannot use it)

I don't read the news (I won't live by it)

Sitting outside of town

Everybody's always down (tell me why)

Because they can't get up

(Ahh, come on and get up)

(Come on and get up)

...

But I don't sit idly by (ahh)

I'm planning a big surprise

I'm gonna fight for what I wanna be

And I won't make the same mistakes ('cause I know)

Because I know how much time that wastes (and function)

Function is the key

To the the waiting room

I don't want the news (I cannot use it)

I don't read the news (I won't live by it)

Sitting outside of town

Everybody's always down (tell me why)

Because they can't get up

(Ahh, come on and get up)

Up for the waiting room

...

Sitting in the waiting room (ahh)

Sitting in the waiting room (ahh)

Sitting in the waiting room (ahh)

Sitting in the waiting room (tell me why?)

Because they can't get up

...
