| Waiting in my corner, waiting on the bell | |
| I was coming off the ropes, i was going to give them hell | |
| Now i'm waiting | |
| Waiting on the lyric, waiting on the song | |
| I know the muse is coming, i'm holding on | |
| I'm waiting | |
| Waiting on the chances, waiting on the breaks | |
| Waiting on an opportunity that i could take | |
| I'm still waiting | |
| Chorus | |
| And all the time i wonder why | |
| Just what or who the hell i am | |
| Where i'm at, where i'm from | |
| Where i'm going, where i belong | |
| Tell me where i'm coming from | |
| Because i'm waiting in the pipeline | |
| Waiting on a message, waiting on a sign | |
| I was waiting on my holy grail to shine | |
| Waiting with the crossword, waiting on reviews | |
| Waiting on something or someone to give me a clue | |
| I'm still waiting | |
| Chorus | |
| And all the time i wonder why | |
| Just what or who the hell i am | |
| Where i'm at, where i'm from | |
| Where i'm going, where i belong | |
| Why do you keep me waiting on | |
| Because i'm waiting in the pipeline | |
| If the carpet that i'm sitting on could fly | |
| If the ring that's on my finger was a sorcerer's charm | |
| If the cloak that i'm wearing could hide me away | |
| I could wait for forever and a day | |
| If the lady that i'm waiting on isn't mine | |
| Then the castles that i'm building are on shifting sands | |
| If the dream that i'm chasing isn't true | |
| Then the light at the end of the tunnel is just a wrecker's fire | |
| Waiting in the pipeline, waiting on the silence | |
| Waiting on the sound, waiting in the backstage | |
| Waiting on the crowd, waiting | |
| Waiting on the critic, waiting on the gong | |
| Waiting on the dj to play my song | |
| Play my song, i'm waiting | |
| And all the time i wonder why | |
| Just what or who the hell i am | |
| Where i'm at, where i'm from | |
| Where i'm going, where i belong | |
| Tell me where i'm coming from | |
| Because i'm waiting in the pipeline | |
| Waiting in the pipeline, waiting in the pipeline waiting waiting | |
