Waiting Room Lyrics - Adrian Belew

When will I ever grow up 

When will today be enough 

When will I learn to be here now? 

It's on the other side of the door - that's what I'm looking for 

I have what I need - why do I want more? more? 

Put a lot of pavement on my shoes 

Made a lot of payments on my dues 

I'm running out of patience just like you 

I'll be in the waiting room tomorrow just like today and yesterday 

Why am I still waiting my life away? 

Where will I find the will to stop running and just stand still 

And take a look at the bird in my hand? 

How can I find the faith to drop out of the human race 

And let the future crawl back to it's cage?
