Lyrics The Waiting

The Waiting

The Company You Keep

Another day to be dumb, confusion mingled with bliss

A bit of revelation that I don't want to miss

I heard bad company kills and absolutely it's true

But then that doesn't explain all that I know about You

That You call me Your own

Never leave me alone I think I should warn You

You're getting in deep

With the company You keep

So while my dinner gets done I'm reading Your history

You've got a reputation and all the people You see

Are a dangerous crowd they're an unsavory sort

Though I can't say it too loud I heard an evil report

The fool and the friendless

The liar and thief

The presence of greatness

In the company of the least.
