You believed in superstitions
Then maybe you would see the signs
But lord knows that this world is cruel
And I ain’t the lord no I’m just a fool
Learning loving somebody
Don’t make them love you
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you?
Must I always be playing, playing your fool?

I sang your songs I danced your dance
I gave your friends all a chance
But putting up with them
Wasn’t worth never having you
Maybe you’ve been through this before
But it’s my first time so please ignore
The next few lines because they’re directed at you
I can’t always be waiting, waiting on you
I can’t always be playing, playing your fool

I keep playing your part
But it’s not my scene
Want this plot to twist
I’ve had enough mystery
You keep building it up
But then you’re shooting me down
But I’m already down
Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting
Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting

Well if I was in your position
I’d put down all my ammunition
I’d wonder why it had taken me so long
But lord knows that I’m not you
And if I was I wouldn’t be so cruel
Because waiting on love
Ain’t so easy to do
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you?
Must I always be playing, playing your fool?

Appease us old farts, OK?    The above ain't exactly the National Fuckin' Anthem.   Some of us have indeed, Caught a Case of the Stupid.  
We think we recognize the Tyler Durden reference.  Although not the song, at least me anyway.  Sorry, but I only watched it once, Years ago.  

Name the writer, performing singer/group, original CD release date, and CD title.

UmTay??

Thanks Jake.

Good lyrics, cool video.    Presumably, for the Young farts.



 It's not so much the songs themselves, but the time and events in our life that they represent.

Carry on...

click on the album and then the track for the above lyrics for the whole video which is pretty cool.

btw I'm 49 and listen to a progressive station most of the winter here on LI  WEHM East Hampton and his stuff get a lot of play.                                

Hell I thought  you were in the boat fishing.
