Always the days are the same, Monotonous rut and routine
                           D
Is it his fate to O.D., On biscuits and T.V.

Remembering someone at school, Mammouth mouth was his name

"What more could there possibly be", He said,
     D                            D7                      A
"For someone such as you, Such an empty-headed fool, You see?"

 He sits there waiting patiently,  He sits there waiting patiently
                    F            G                         Am
Not knowing what he waits for, Uncertain what he wants for sure
                    F              G                            A
Not knowing what he waits for, The one who yearns for something more

[Verse 2]
        A
She's annoyed and she doesn't know why By the neighour who's fixing his car
                                               D
He's spent so many hours underneath it now The bloody thing should fly
      A
Their greetings float through her mind Like music you hear in a lift

Frustrations and feelings she can't control
D                         D7                A
Wake within her now, They churn within her now


[Chorus 2]
F                G           Am    F                G           Am
 She sits there waiting patiently,  She sits there waiting patiently
                     F            G                          Am
Not knowing what she waits for, Uncertain what she wants for sure
                     F              G                            A
Not knowing what she waits for, The one who yearns for something more

The Prudential man is here, Oh please, just go away
     D                       A
The bible-basher's here, Oh thanks but not today
      D                 A
Brown envelopes appear, Throw them all away
   D                  D7                C#m Bm
So many bills to pay, Every day the same
        A                                C#m       Bm
I don't want to know, I don't want to know, Oh no no
        A               C#m Bm
I don't want to know...
        A                                C#m       Bm
I don't want to know, I don't want to know, Oh no no
