Waiting at the Turnpike

I was waiting for my mama

I was waiting at the bar

I was waiting at the chapel

I was waiting for my pa

 

I am waiting at the window

I am waiting at the door

I am waiting on the ceiling

I am waiting on the floor

 

I AM WAITING AT THE TURNPIKE

WAITING FOR MY LIFE TO CHANGE

NOW AS LONG AS I AM WAITING

JUST ONE DAY IT'LL BE TO LATE

I AM WAITING FOR REDEMPTION

FOR THE DEEDS THAT I HAVE DONE

I AM WAITING AT THE TURNPIKE

BUT REDEMPTION NEVER COMES

 

I was waiting at the station

I kept waiting to get paid

Waiting for some inspiraton

Just one day it'll be too late

 

I am waiting for a cigarette

I am waiting for a beer

I am waiting for a moment

I am waiting for a year

 

I am waiting to get sick of

All the things that I don't need

I am waiting to get rid of

To get rid of all my deeds

 

I AM WAITING AT THE TURNPIKE...

 

& ich warte auf der Strasse

& ich wart wohl auf den Bus

& ich wart noch etwas länger

Bis ich endlich sterben muss

 

I am waiting for my mama

I am waiting for my pa

I am waiting at the chapel

I am waiting at the bar
