We were waiting for peter, the dealer, |
|
He comes in the evening when were fussing in bed. |
|
He says, "good morning, heres your breakfast", |
|
And give us plates of stone. |
|
Take a pinta blood each from us to give to the poor. |
|
We count the windows in the cities and tell each other, |
|
Yes, life is a helluva lot of waiting time. |
|
Our minds are objects of constipation, |
|
Our bodies are subject to dissipation. |
|
So keep your intentions in a clear bottle |
|
And leave it in the cupboard when youre out. |
|
We were waiting for peter, the wheeler, |
|
He comes in the morning when were fast asleep. |
|
Gives us a trip thats spending hundred years in a day, |
|
And takes a bone each from us to give to the dogs. |
|
We count the wrinkles on the globe and tell each other, |
|
Yes, life is a helluva lot of waiting time. |
|
Our minds are objects of constipation, |
|
Our bodies are subject to dissipation. |
|
So keep your intentions in a clear bottle |
|
And leave it on the shelf when you rap. |
|
We were waiting for peter, the blower, |
|
He comes in when were fixing snow on rock. |
|
Gives us orange juice laced with sunshine and spring, |
|
And takes a heart each from us to give to the world. |
|
We count the memories that are lost and tell each other, |
|
Yes, life is a helluva lot of waiting time. |
|
Our minds are objects of constipation, |
|
Our bodies are subject to dissipation. |
|
So keep your intentions in a clear bottle |
|
Throw it in the ocean when you go. |
|
We were waiting for peter, the weaver, |
|
He comes in a flash when we're wide awake |
|
Says the world cant give us answers |
|
cause its stuttering in its mind. |
|
Takes a head each off us to give us some peace. |
|
We count the lights in the universe and tell each other, |
|
Yes, life is a helluva lot of waiting time. |
