The Lyrics

Oh, I'm an angry shopper, sick and tired
Of the crap I'm goin' through
Every time I shop here at this store
It's just down the street from where I live
But queues like this won't do
I'm not coming back here anymore, ow

I'm waiting in line
For some service I pine
And my ice cream's drippin' in a runny pool
'Cause it's lost its cool
And I'm waiting in line, ow

Where's everyone gone, I just don't know
No staff in here today
I wonder how much time's gone by
When I get home, I won't know
If it's still Saturday
Or even if it's still July, ow

I'm waiting in line
For some service I pine, ow
Things biodegradin' as they fall apart
In my shopping cart
And I'm waiting in line

Waiting in line
Waiting in line
Waiting in line
Waiting in line
Waiting in line, line, line, line

Ooh, I've been stuck here too many times
Ooh, this lining up I detest
Why can't I find
Another market nearby?

Now the flies are buzzin' round me
Like some vultures round a corpse
And there's cobwebs on my trolley
Big enough to trap a horse

Some old lady at the checkout
Slowin' everybody down
She's got a giant jar of coins
Most of 'em cracked and rusted brown

There's a group of guys behind me
Playin' poker while they wait
And further back they've got a chess set
Seven moves away from mate

And the line is gettin' longer
Wonder how far back it goes
I'd try to take a guess
But I think Satan only knows

I'm waiting in line
For some service I pine
Think the stress will send me to an early grave
And I need a shave
But I'm here waiting
Still waiting
Waiting in line

Ah, waiting in line (I'm stuck in line)
Waiting in line (I'm stuck in line)
Ow, waiting in line (I'm stuck in line)
Waiting in line (I'm stuck in line)
Ow, waiting in line (I'm stuck in line)
Still waiting in line (I'm stuck in line)
Just waiting in line (I'm stuck in line)
Waiting in line
Yawn!

Very enjoyable :-) - "And my ice cream's drippin' in a runny pool/ 'Cause it's lost its cool" - is a very sweet line
