Gabriel Peter Waiting For The Big One Lyrics

Waiting For The Big One Lyrics

The wine's all drunk and so am I

 Here with the hoi-poloi, don't ask me why

 We're celebratin' anticipatin'; end of the year

 everybody come, everybody here

 - well more or less

 Some already in a mess

 I guess they're waiting for the big one.

 

 Wonder why I'm cold. How did I get this far?

 Had no money, had no car

 I pray the snow goes, be bad if it settles

 'cos I follow my nose and the dried up rose petals

 - like the man says,

 Sure hope Moses knows his roses

 Or we'll all be waiting for the big one.

 

 Once I was the credit to my credit card

 spent what I hadn't got, (it) wasn't hard

 No trust in judgement no trust in money

 Someday I'll find myself like a bee finding honey

 But in the meantime

 I'm gonna have me some fun

 Waiting for the big one.

 

 One too many, where ego I go too

 Looking for the real thing

 It don't come from what I do

 No real communication moves out of my face

 I'm beginning to think I'm just out of place

 Won't get in too deep, I want to get some sleep

 To be ready for the big one

 To be ready for the big one
