Wait for the stereo
To make a sound that you want to hear
More than train whistles blowing
Far from your ears
You can wait for your petty goals
To cross themselves off of your list
Like a nightclub that's more a bore
Than a wait in its line is
Yeah, maybe then
We won't be so restless like we have been
It takes more and more each day
Just to get the weight lifted
From these heavy eyelids
I never want to bitch like this
I know it's not as bad as it sounds like it is
I never want to bitch like this
But I'm not sorry
And if there comes a time
I change my mind
I'll try to sing this song right
But it doesn't look like tonight
Wait for some chemical float
You could wait for another syringe
Or for a 401K-deathbed-coffin
Weight isn't in your soul
It's in these rusting body-prisons
That we keep our souls detained in
Schlepping useless baggage
I never want to bitch like this
I know its not as bad as it sounds like it is
I never want to bitch like this
But I'm not sorry
And if there comes a time I change my mind
I'll try to sing this song right
I'll try to sing this song right
But it doesn't look like tonight
O' darling, the stars are falling for you
