  • Waitress' Song

    Tomorrow 1.10. Turku@Klubi (with many other bands as it is the 6th b-day of Klubi)

    Here is Waitress’ Song

    On the first Friday away from duty

    the fireman died in a hallway staircase

    you became a drunk

    and a pregnant woman

    you became an endless party

    of one

    you can cry, you can cry, you can cry cry cry

    but you’re never gonna find

    that place again

    where love felt like it was pure and unspoiled

    it’s just gone

    you came from money and you were a beauty

    even in your waitress’ dress you played the Queen

    in a bigger city with the cool cruel people

    you thought you could drown in anonymity

    you can try, you can try, you can try try try

    but you’re never gonna find

    that place again

    where love felt like it was pure and unspoiled

    it’s just gone

    So, you tried on faces, never showed your son

    what lay underneath the ‘happy mom’

    he became aloof in a brilliant manner

    you remain a distant porcelain mom

    sure, you cry, yeah, you cry, oh, you cry cry cry

    but you’re never gonna play

    that game again

    where love felt like it was pure and unspoiled

    it’s just gone
