Two Minutes Till Lunch Lyrics - Stan Ridgway

I was standing in line, I was biding my time 

I was watchin' a clock on the wall 

And it was two minutes till lunch, so I got good and ready 

Just then I heard the telephone call 

It was she, she told me not to worry 

She told me "take life a little more in stride 

Remember the books I bought-cha, bought-cha"ccnever really read 'em 

Just don't rememeber much inside anymore 

I was standing in line, I was biding my time 

I was watchin' a clock on the wall 

And it was two minutes till lunch, so I got good and ready 

Just then I heard my foreman call 

Don't-touch-that-you'll-blow-this-place-up!
