Two Minutes Till Lunch - Lyrics by Stan Ridgway


Lyrics

I was standing in line, i was biding my time
I was watchin' a clock on the wall
And it was two minutes till lunch, so i got good and ready
Just then i heard the telephone call

It was she, she told me not to worry
She told me "take life a little more in stride
Remember the books i bought-cha, bought-cha"¨c¨cnever really read 'em
Just don't rememeber much inside anymore


I was standing in line, i was biding my time
I was watchin' a clock on the wall
And it was two minutes till lunch, so i got good and ready
Just then i heard my foreman call
Don't-touch-that-you'll-blow-this-place-up!
