We play a waiting game And we play a waiting game We play a waiting game And it won't be long now The tailor was the first to go We burnt his clothes And we burried him low The tailor's next of kin And the tailor's neighbors followed him And so it is And so it goes Save our souls We play a waiting game And we play a waiting game We play a waiting game And it won't be long now The fossor refused to dig And who could blame him if he did We bury our own now We bury them deep When the doctor followed suit Knew our plight was set to worsen So it is The fear of god now is in every person With heavy hearts And our bare hands We build a wall around this town Now no one comes and no one goes Save our souls We play a waiting game And we play a waiting game We play a waiting game And it won't be long now When you said the air smelled sweet I knew it was only a matter of time And we all fall down And we all fall down
