Greatness Waitress Lyrics by Fishboy

Waitsgiving

2021

[Verse 1]
The perfect idea arrives when it’s able
Forever stamps on an everything bagel
I’m not an adult but I’m not a teenager no more
And I work at a store (wait)
With records and books (wait)
I often perform
You should come take a look but you can’t take a look
The band’s on a break, the time that we took
Was specifically taken for

[Chorus]
Waiting on a great idea
I am waiting on the perfect idea

[Verse 2]
Air conditioning, ice cream sandwich
Something so perfect you don’t understand how it
Sits out in front of you waiting to grab from the yard
And I’m bad at guitar (wait)
But I think that's okay (wait)
‘Cause the better you are (wait)
The less room in your brain and the room in your brain
Needs plenty of space to optimally function
With time that was given for

[Chorus]
Waiting on a great idea
I was waiting on the perfect idea

[Verse 3]
It was Saturday (on Saturday) that I found (I)
Found a tape (found a tape) on the ground (of)
Of a diary (a diary) sister made (on a)
Everything she’d seen that day
While listening (while listening)
It was so inspiring (inspired me)
I took it home (to)
Melody (write melodies), harmony (or), a symphony (a symphony)
It came to me
And within a week (within a week) and a day (I)
Eagerly put my songs to tape (I put my songs to tape)
And from a countertop display
I sold all twelve at work that day

[Refrain]
I will admit, it’s beautifully lame
The time that I spend
Waiting for something to
Say it to no one, say it again
I’m not alone, I’m just sitting here patiently waiting

[Chorus]
On a great idea
I am waiting on the next idea
I am waiting on a perfect idea
(Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait)
