Note: [1] Reference to Nietzsche's book Also Sprach Zarethustra. This reference
has double meaning in the song. Nietzsche's philosophy was espoused in misinterpreted form by the Nazis in their quest for pan-european domination; and composer Richard Straus used it as the title of a musical compostion, later used as theme music by Stanley Kuberik in his movie 2001: A Space Odyssey.

and the young singer's waiting to sing
and there's a gardener outside a big estate
waiting for the grass to turn green
the hitchhiker is waiting for a ride
and the prisoner's waiting for a prison break
and the surfer is waiting for the tide
nothing seems to make a turn
cause the worm's still waitin' for the early bird
and the early bird's waitin' for the worm
just waiting for a finger in the pie
and waitin' for a call from a TV show
or waitin' for an uncle to die 1-2-3
and nothing ever turns out right
because the night shift is waiting for the morning
and the burglar is waiting for the night.
and the vicar is waitin' for the groom
the groom is waiting for his new bride
But the bride is waitin' for June
and nobody wants to settle down
They got their heads in a holo-video
but the producer is waiting for the blonde bird
and the blonde girl's waitin' for him
just waiting for their chips and their pie
waitin' for a call from a big quiz show
or waitin' for some rich relation to die
nothing ever makes a turn
and the worm is waitin' for the grass to turn green
while the early bird is waitin' for the worm
I don't think I can go through it again
I'm just waiting
I'm just waiting
I'm just waiting
I'm just waiting
and I'm putting it on the back burner for now
cause everybody's racing and fawning and skivin'
and honey I'm waitin' for you
Ah-just waitin'
Ah-just waitin'
Ah-just waitin'
Ah-just waitin'
Like mountain climbing
or skiing in the alps
Think of it.
I don't.
Wet, the ugly pavement cracked
Pause, unsafe.
Insect posse will be crushed.
It was a bit of Code Selfish.
in the minds of the weak.
They were unprepared to be torched
By lighter kleptomaniacs,
So-called dangerous.
And there is bad
And there is sad
And there is bad and sad.
"Same again, sir?"
How can you have the same again?
In all types of intemperance
Our bones cracked in unison
Gentlemen's, gentlemen's agreement
And probably still is
Sticking his colours
To whatever new mast there is
But our agreement is over
But with you it was just prurience
You're addicted to excitement
My energies are down now with yours
And you're sitting on my back fence
But I thought we had an agreement
Gentlemen's, gentlemen's agreement
Your brain is Game Boy
It's filled with excretement
And your short-term memory
Will fleetingly remember
Our gentlemen's, gentlemen's agreement
Gentlemen's, gentlemen's agreement
Was in a hotel in Notting Hill Gate
Now in 1992
Staying in a hotel in Notting Hill Gate
Too busy to work
Just can't cut it
Married, 2 kids
I pretend to go to work
Got a porta-fax
Aftershave like mustard
Two pints of lager do me in
And The Spirit of Man
Is a pub I go in
I'm married, 2 kids
Have a peculiar goatish smell
Am a long-winded article
I get livid
Married, 2 kids
Married, 2 kids
And all over
Came mystic crew filth

Where did they come from?
The little motherfuckers
Nobody knows
Nobody bothers
Crew filth
Crew filth
One was a Bush-baby
One had tattoos on his legs
One had brown spectacles on his head
Motherfuckers
Crew filth
They had sensitive sides to their nature
They would smoke pot in their rooms
They were always behind you
That's why we kept our backs to the walls
You gotta watch your wallet, man
Crew filth
Bill was King of the fucking Motherfucker crew filth
He had to do some work one night
Then his hair turned white
Crew filth baby X3
Gotta watch your friends
Watch your girl
You never can tell
He might kill a tab
While you're jumping off
All your friends might turn out to be
Crew filth
