John Cale Lyrics

"Waiting for Blonde" lyrics


I'm gonna write a play -
many minutes long -
about a man on the A-train -
selling things (for pain) -
this is what he said:

'I am a very good business man -
Good morning ladies and gentlemen! -
I have for you today.............
double-A batteries , triple-A batteries and the mighty C-battery.............
4.95 - 3.95 - 2.95.............
I am a very good business man.............
you have a good day.............
and remember -

As you're waiting for blonde.....
you are New Yorkers...........
as you're waiting for blonde you are the very best.............
(yes I have change for a 20 how many you need brother).............
you are New Yorkers you are the very best.............

Your skin is crawling.............
your tongue is in a trance.............
remember you are New Yorkers ...........
and this is your last chance.

Good morning ladies and gentlemen.............
Good morning.............
Step away from the closing doors. .....

This is Canal St.............
last chance for the express train north.............
the C train.............
next stop Port Authority the Path train.............
and all stations to Atlantis.............'
