The First Waitsgiving
Fishboy
GENRE
In '97 I was walking to work
Tripped on a plaque and lookin' back
I saw the date of my birth
A time capsule absent of an opening date
Just a burial time and at the bottom underlined
The word wait
So I took myself down to city hall
To get some education information making sense of it all
City hall passed a law that it’ll never be raised
And every 17th of May is now a city-wide holiday
And on Waitsgiving Day
The red lights never change
There’s a big parade
That just sits in the shade
And then the grand marshal stands
Signals to the band and they play:
Wе are always waiting
Hoping, praying
For a day that may not come
And with a little patiеnce
Contemplation
We may find
We have enough
So tell your mom and dad
Cancel all the plans they had
And come out and play
We are always waiting
Hoping, praying
For a day that may not come
And with a little patience
Contemplation
We may find
We are
Tripped on a plaque and lookin' back
I saw the date of my birth
A time capsule absent of an opening date
Just a burial time and at the bottom underlined
The word wait
So I took myself down to city hall
To get some education information making sense of it all
City hall passed a law that it’ll never be raised
And every 17th of May is now a city-wide holiday
And on Waitsgiving Day
The red lights never change
There’s a big parade
That just sits in the shade
And then the grand marshal stands
Signals to the band and they play:
Wе are always waiting
Hoping, praying
For a day that may not come
And with a little patiеnce
Contemplation
We may find
We have enough
So tell your mom and dad
Cancel all the plans they had
And come out and play
We are always waiting
Hoping, praying
For a day that may not come
And with a little patience
Contemplation
We may find
We are
