lyrics

I went down
To the waiting place
And waited in-between
An empty chair
And a taxidermy bear
And my thoughts were turning mean

And in walked
A handsome man
He was dressed the same as me
With a great big hat
And all in black
Of a medium height and lean

I went down
I went down to wait
I went down
To the waiting place

The handsome man
Moved to where
The empty chair had been
I had moved it when
I entered in
Now it had been redeemed

The room was still
And I was too
He flung his hand into his pocket
And standing up
He left it there
It was as if he had forgot it

I went down
I went down to wait
I went down
To the waiting place

And finally
The silence broke
The handsome man did speak
I told him that
I understood
Beneath the taxidermy teeth

And now the time
It was a getting on
If we were going to succeed
So we busted down
The hallway door
And left the waiting in the wings

I went down
I went down to wait
I went down
To the waiting place
