Jane Siberry - The Waitress lyrics

rate me

I have to clear your table

I wipe it

It's right to keep it clean

so I clean

yes --- I clean

do you clean?

yes --- I clean it

I have to empty ash trays

so I empty them

it's right to keep them clean

so I clean

yes --- I clean

I'm the queen of the clean

...and I'd probably

be famous now

if I wasn't

such a good waitress...

I am a drag at parties

cuz it upsets me

to see so many empties

and I have to pick them up

or I have to go home

...but sometimes I have nightmares

and the ashtrays are filling up

and I can't find my section

and the bottles are flying through the air

like crazy autumn leaves

and I can't find my section

I lost my section

I lost my section

I can't find it

somebody help me please

I am in quicksand

I am in mud to my knees

help me... aaagghhh...

I have to clear your table

excuse me

it's right to keep it clean

so I clean

yes --- I clean

do you clean?

yes --- I clean it

I have to know the regulars

well --- I don't have to

but I like to know their names

and I know them even better

when they're nice to me

... and I'd probably

be famous now

if I wasn't

such a good waitress...
