lyrics

The windows slide.
A voice calls from inside.
The voice asks him his name
and the reason he came.

“Go sit down, around
you’ll find some magazines.
Down the hall there is a Coke machine.”

Waiting room.
Waiting room.
Waiting room.

There’s red vinyl chairs.
He finds one, sits, and stares.
He finds something to read.
“Is there something you need?”

“Ten more minutes,
then the doctor will be free.
Meanwhile would you like to watch TV?”

Waiting room.
Waiting room.
Waiting room.

Patience leaves him as the patients come and go.
Channels change, the strangers all follow
the voice who calls out all you need to know
about the waiting room.
Waiting room.
Waiting room.
