Long Song Comin'

Politician 'bout to make his speech

Signal for attention, please

Then he shuffled his notes

And wiped his sweating brow

I looked at my friend next to me

And we don't dare agree

Before this is over

We'll wish we woulda left right now

'Cause it sounds like a long song comin'

And it looks like he might throw in a little dancin', too

Yes, it sounds like a long song comin'

And buddy, listen buddy

We got better things to listen to

Lady from a church bizarre

Was smiling from her head to her feet

All the way down to her feet

That she couldn't see

She started speeking her piece

I said "Stop, Wait a minute, please

Before you start talkin'

I wish you'd please listen to me."

'Cause it sounds like a long song comin'

And though some of the things you say might be true

It still sounds like a long song comin'

And baby, listen lady, I got better things to listen to

Yes, it sounds like a long song comin'

And it looks like you might throw in a little dancin', too

Yes, it sounds like a long song comin'

And buddy, listen buddy, I got better things to listen to

Say, so it sounds like a long song comin'

And it sounds like some just might be true

Still it sounds like a long song comin'

And buddy, listen buddy, I got better things to listen to

And buddy, listen buddy, we got better things to listen to
