Couldn't You Wait? Songtext
von Silkworm

Well, couldn′t you wait
For a certain time to elapse
To check if before the trap was set
And collapse like a big aircraft
Green lug screen weight
Did you test the water with a big toe dip?
Don't put all your trust in that triple-timing bitch
Could you elaborate on how you tempt fate?
Couldn′t you wait?

Couldn't you wait
To go on your foggy trips?
You were in the corner doing backflips
I saw sweat on the wheelchair grips
But couldn't you wait?
You never cooked up your medicine and
Said the aspirin made your thick blood thin
And every dinner was a Capricorn crown of thorns
Couldn′t you wait?

Yeah, couldn′t you wait?


You were funny to a fault
Went too heavy on the salt
Can you stand up straight
While I illuminate a few of your flaws?
I thought you said you would never get your teeth capped
How would you like to get your face slapped?
Did it hurt to take the time to make the new girl happy
As a clam in a pair of tight bubble worms?

Is your fresh face never any fun at all?
Do you still go off like a gun that's gotten stuck on stun
And fallen in this fall?
Do you still think you′re a god?
Is your first day on the job even over yet?
Is the summertime in heaven grand?
Is it fifty-nine past the eleventh?
Couldn't you wait

For the midnight train at least?
All these straight girls are insane beasts
The taste of trouble′s in my mouth like a candy cane
Couldn't you wait

Until the fog had passed
About all the love that never lasts?
How could you devastate someone you claim not to hate?
And couldn′t you have waited?
Couldn't you have waited?
Couldn't you have waited?
Couldn′t you wait?
