Here are the lyrics:

Waiting In Line

I went to a gay bar
and I looked at all the paintings
if you see somebody
studying paintings in a gay bar, that's me

and all the boys were laughing
and all the girls were dancing
and I thought for a moment,
I saw someone in between

so, do you want to talk to me?
do you want to dance with me?
do you want to get drunk and discuss anthropology?
I don't really care that much
no, I don't care at all
I just don't want to be alone
when I hit that wall
'cause all of my life
oh, all of my life
I've been waiting waiting waiting in line

so I went to the gay bar
and I got myself a haircut
I was feeling pretty good
thinking I looked like I should
and at the door there was a fee
and once inside would you believe
no one even took a second
to take a second glance at me?

so, do you want to talk to me
do you want to dance with me
do you want to get drunk
and discuss anthropology?
I don't really care that much
no, I don't care at all
I just don't want to be alone
when I take that fall
'cause all
of my life
I've been waiting waiting waiting in line

so I went to the gay bar
only stayed an hour or two
then I mustered up the courage to come
crawling back to you
and I know that that's bad etiquette
and I know it's pretty low
but I realized that I love you
and I thought you ought to know

so, say that you'll still talk to me
say that you'll still dance with me
say you want to stay at home and discuss anthropology
'cause I don't really care that much
but I'd pretend for you
let me say again so it sinks in
how I'm sorry and I love you

and all
of my life
in fact,
all of our lives
we are waiting waiting waiting
for the right time

Enjoy!
