All You Have to Do Is Wait Lyrics by David Zippel & Cy Coleman

City Of Angels (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

[Intro: Muñoz]
Jackpot! Bingo straight across! And I thought this was gonna be a lousy day...
[Verse 1]
There's no sun up in the sky
And the birds forgot to sing
But you're headed for a cell
Then to die and rot in hell
So it might as well be spring
I'll be singing like a bird
When the jury sets the date
And this capital event
Proves revenge is heaven sent
All you have to do is wait
[Chorus]
You're about to take that big siesta Stone but
Don't request a padre
Rest assured that I'll say mass
Try a final meal of tacos on a plate of beans, mañana
Odds are they are gonna give you gas
[Verse 2]
They will strap you in a chair
And for once you'll be polite
You'll say governor 'pardon me'
But he's sure to disagree
'Cause the case I've made is tight
It's the people versus Stone
And my money's on the state
Who says dreams do not come true
You will get what you are due
All you have to do is wait
[Bridge]
Time to fiesta!
On the day you die I'll eat high on the hog
Santa Maria
I will go to town on the day you're put down like a dog
I'm leading an ovation
At your asphyxiation
As crowds line up to watch you pay your debts
I'll collect my bets
Playing castanets
[Verse 3: Muñoz (Ensemble Members)]
As you're walking your last mile
(As you're walking you last mile)
I'll be overcome with pride
(He'll be overcome with pride)
Taking pleasure in your death
And to know your final breath
Will be filled with cyanide
(Will be filled with cyanide)
[Chorus 2]
Though you've never been my favorite gringo
In my native lingo
Adiós (adiós)
The end is close (the end is close)
[Verse 4]
They will seal the chamber door
Think of me who sealed your fate
Once the pellets hit the pail
From the instant you inhale
All you have to do is wait
(All you have to do is wait)
Good things come to those who wait!
