Lyrics
waiting on the other shoe
did you ever hear the one about the guy who went to heaven
and when he got there all he did was sit and stare?
and all the angels gathered round and said "hey, brother, what's the matter?
we see you lookin' but we don’t see nothin' there."
he said, "my winged little friends i think you'd better look again
if you don't see all the possibilities, i do
i ain't nobody’s fool
after a lifetime of surprises
i'm just waiting on the other shoe."
waiting on the other shoe to fall
just a half a step from pure salvation
knowing there's a way to blow it all
waiting on the other shoe to fall
did you ever have that dream you're on a green deserted island
and the water's only water
the air is only air
and the breeze is in the trees
and you're floating in the ocean
and you feel like you might find some comfort there?
and then you look to the horizon where you see a little boat
except the boat keeps getting bigger
and now its engines start to scream
and it pulls up to the shore
and off steps some greedy little bastard
who says, " hey, man, get your ass out of my dream"
waiting on the other shoe to fall
just a half a step from pure salvation
knowing there's a way to blow it all
waiting on the other shoe to fall
i thought my life was gonna be about me
i want my life to be more about me
did you ever get that old familiar feeling that your life's a two ton anvil
and you're a battle scarred coyote with a target on your head?
and every time you turn around
does something up and knock you down?
you get the feeling you'd be better off in bed?
well, i'll tell you what you do
you go and get yourself a shovel
and you dig yourself to china
or to here if you’re chinese
and at the both ends of the hole
you'll hear the same sad story told
by would be angels falling on their knees
waiting on the other shoe to fall
just a half a step from pure salvation
knowing there's a way to blow it all
waiting on the other shoe to fall
