Mother´s waiting in the kitchen
The elephant´s waiting in the zoo
The teacher´s waiting in the classroom
And I am waiting here for you

And the audience is waiting
For the show that won´t begin
The artist´s waiting at the backdoor
Because nobody let him in

Why did she go
She said there´s no tomorrow
How did she know
Did anybody tell her
I can´t explain
I´m sitting in the corner
Staring at the wall
And she won´t be back again

Louise was waiting for a client
First he paid and then he came
Now she´s cooking for a baby
The client wasn´t seen again

Why did she go
She said there´s no tomorrow
How did she know
Did anybody tell her
I can´t explain
I´m sitting in the corner
Staring at the wall
And she won´t be back again

It´s time you started to think seriously about
Your future and your dreaming
She said and didn´t leave no room for doubt
That if I took her meaning
There was no longer dreaming
It´s just a perfect screaming

Why did she go
She said there´s no tomorrow
How did she know
Did anybody tell her
I can´t explain
I´m sitting in the corner
Staring at the wall
And she won´t be back again
