"Waiting For The Joy" lyrics

"Waiting For The Joy"

I've been asleep for a week and I don't know
Where I've been
I know I should, if I could, I'd be good
And I'd eat my greens

Up all night
Locking ourselves inside

Everybody's singing all the songs I love
Waiting for the joy to come but it never does
I'm pushing buttons keeping on the lights
Even doing nothing, I'm not quite doing it right
Shut the front door
Tell me what to do and what to do it for
Everybody's singing all the songs I love
Waiting for the joy to come, but it never does
But it never does

Sitting on notions in oceans of time
And my hair got long
Meant to reply to your message but now
I don't feel too strong

Sink like a stone
Sorry, I don't answer the phone

Everybody's singing all the songs I love
Waiting for the joy to come but it never does
I'm pushing buttons keeping on the lights
Even doing nothing, I'm not quite doing it right
Shut the front door
Tell me what to do and what to do it for
Everybody's singing all the songs I love
Gimme one more, one, two, three, four

Did it go? Has it gone away?
Did it go? Is there nothing left to say?

Thinking about getting out, there's a drought
And I need a drink

Everybody's singing all the songs I love
Waiting for the joy to come but it never does
I'm pushing buttons keeping on the lights
Even doing nothing, I'm not quite doing it right

All the songs I love
Waiting for the joy to come but it never does
I'm pushing buttons keeping on the lights
Even doing nothing, I'm not quite doing it right
Shut the front door
Tell me what to do and what to do it for
Everybody's singing all the songs I love
Waiting for the joy to come, but it never does
