Standing in line
To see the show tonight
And there’s a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say
I’d be there... waiting for
Dani the girl
Is singing songs to me
Beneath the marquee... overload
By the way I tried to say
I’d be there... waiting for
Steak knife
caro shark
Con job
boot cut
Skin that flick
She’s such a little dj
Get there quick
By street but not the freeway
Turn that trick
To make a little leeway
Beat that nic
But not the way that we play
Dog town
blood bath
Rib cage
soft tail
Standing in line
To see the show tonight
And there’s a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say
I’d be there... waiting for
Black jack
dope dick
Pawn shop
quick pick
Kiss that dyke
I know you want to hold one
Not on strike
But I’m about to bowl one
Bite that mic
I know you never stole one
Girls that like
A story so I told one
Song bird
main line
Cash back
hard top
Standing in line
To see the show tonight
And there’s a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say
I’d be there... waiting for
Dani the girl
Is singing songs to me
Beneath the marquee... of her soul
By the way I tried to say
I’d be there... waiting for
Chant
Standing in line
To see the show tonight
And there’s a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say
I’d be there... waiting for
Dani the girl
Is singing songs to me
Beneath the marquee... of her soul
By the way I tried to say
I know you're
Looking for
Standing in line
To see the show tonight
And there’s a light on
Heavy glow
By the way I tried to say
I’d be there... waiting for
High Points: Flea's Bass, Frusciante's Pummeling Guitars, and the haunting ending lines of the song
[Though this song tends to get weird in the middle parts, it manages to convey the essence of the whole feeling of confusion and the tendency to speak gibberish when getting tongue tied trying to say what you want to say to your special someone. But in the end, what matters is that you let them know how you feel ... and if the elders are to be believed, no matter what you say, they'll understand what you're trying to say...!]
