By John J Heartfield
You’re born
You live
You live
You die
What’s between
Too fast goes by
You want to make
The most of your time
What do you find?
You’re standing in line!
Standing in line!
I don’t like it
Standing in line
I don’t like it
It’s really good
It’s really great
You want a taste
You gotta wait
Big push up front
Big shove behind
I gotta get
Out of this line!
Standing in line!
I don’t like it
Standing In Line!
I don’t like it
Minutes into hours
Hours into years
Please hold the phone
The line starts here
Just another second
Just another day
We’ll get right to you
Just get out
Get out
Get out
Of the way!
You can’t go up
You can’t go back
You might go under
If you’ve got the knack
Watch yourself
Watch what you do
Show any weakness
They’ll trample on you
Standing in line!
I don’t like it
Standing In Line!
I don’t like it
You wait for meat
And you get bone
You wait for love
You wait alone
Wait right now
Wait till the
Wait ‘till you get old, baby
And then
Standing in line
You won’t like it
Standing in line!
