Lyrics Steve Harley

Steve Harley

Waiting

We can wait forever on a busking shoes

Catching up on sleep or catching up on news

We can whisper prayers, or shanty on the blue

We can make a choice, 'cause either one will do

Seeking out the big one

Wondering will it come

Will we wait forever?

Maybe it won't come

Back man in the choir band

The yellow and the red men

The prisoner and the free man

A-waiting for the man

Sitting on the sidelines

Sitting on the fence

We can wave the flag, or turn away from evidence

We can go and get it, or we can wait around

We can listen hard and never hear a sound

Seeking utopia

Wondering will it show

And is it worth the struggle?

Nobody seems to know, mm

Back man in the choir band

The yellow and the red men

The prisoner and the free man

A-waiting for the man

Back man in the choir band

The yellow and the red men

The prisoner and the free man

A-waiting for the man

Back man in the choir band

The yellow and the red men

The prisoner and the free man

A-waiting for the man
