 Struggling with The Wait? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

What would you rather left you first
Your body or your mind
You ask yourself 
Every day

More than ninety years have passed you by
I can't fathom all you've seen
All the war
All the art and technology

Time flies when you're alive 
But it's never a smooth flight
It accelerates till you crash 
And burn if the religious affiliation is right

And tonight 
You're the speed of light

This is the wait
The wait
Something's gonna happen
But for now
This is the wait

Every January of the past twelve years 
You've gone a cruise around the world
All the men of the family are dead or useless 
So it's just you and the girls

And your grand daughter, she feels obliged 
Because you could die at any point in time 
Like the power in the house your husband built 
Cos he crossed over some lines

But she's always the youngest 
On a boat full of old fucks
Casual racism and general ignorance 
Run amok
But even worse, the in-house band sucks

And she's stuck

This is the wait
The wait
Something's gonna happen
But for now
This is the wait

Your grand daughter's gorgeous
The wait adorns this
Her pixelated face translates to heat from a screen
What a lacklustre sensation 
When compared to the warmth of her flesh
So I wait

How'd a dignified woman 
End up in solitary confinement
Are cruise ships in cahoots with the US justice system
If only her wing-tipped eyeliner 
Could catch an updraught homeward
But I'll wait

I guess I'll wait
