Eraserheads
Waiting For The Bus
[Verse 1]
I've been standing here
Waiting for the bus on a Saturday
Laundry on my back, ultraviolet rays
Like I'm posing for a shot in a magazine
What the hell does it mean?

[Refrain]
I'm a travelling man, straight from the can
I'm a thousand miles away
From my number one fan
My folks are getting tight
Won't let me out at night
You can't avoid the complications
When there's no reason at all

[Pre-Chorus]
When the right-hand strikes, we fly
I'll drink my beer, I wipe my tears
Southbound in the sky

[Chorus]
Another karma, another reason
Gets you every day
The only time that you can talk
You ain't got nothing to say
Well, I'm caught up in a stupid game that I can't play
It's just a waste of time but I'm in it anyway
[Verse 2]
I've been sitting here watching the signs
Too many cars at night
Belching in the moonlight
We're doing ninety as the sky turns to grey
Some people look like bees
Buzzing by the highway

[Bridge]
The wheels are rolling like a rolling stone, alone
I choose the road less travelled on now

[Verse 3]
I'm lying here waiting for the day
On the second deck
Dreaming of a girl from a fairytale
Chain around my neck
A ride is all it takes
But pains get in the way

[Refrain]
I'm a travelling man, straight from the can
I'm a thousand miles away
From my number one fan
My folks are getting tight
Won't let me out at night
You can't avoid the complications
When there's no reason at all
[Pre-Chorus]
When the right-hand strikes, we fly
I'll drink my beer, I wipe my tears
Southbound in the sky

[Chorus]
Another karma, another reason
Gets you every day
The only time that you can talk
You ain't got nothing to say
Well, I'm caught up in a stupid game that I can't play
It's just a waste of time, waste of time

Another karma, another reason
Gets you every day
The only time that you can talk
You ain't got nothing to say
Well I'm caught up in a stupid game that I can't play
It's just a waste of time but I'm in it anyway
I'm in it anyway
