Peter Gabriel - Waiting For The Big One

Peter Gabriel

Waiting For The Big One

The wine's all drunk and so am I
Here with the hoi-poloi, don't ask me why
We're celebratin' anticipatin'; end of the year
everybody come, everybody here
-- well more or less
Some already in a mess
I guess they're waiting for the big one.

Wonder why I'm cold. How did I get this far?
Had no money, had no car
I pray the snow goes, be bad if it settles
'cos I follow my nose and the dried up rose petals
-- like the man says,
Sure hope Moses knows his roses
Or we'll all be waiting for the big one.

Once I was a credit to my credit card
spent what I hadn't got, it wasn't hard
No trust in judgements no trust in money
Someday I'll find myself like a bee finding honey
But in the meantime, I'm gonna have me some fun
Waiting for the big one.

One too many, where ego I go too
Looking for the real thing
It don't come from what I do
No real communication moves out of my face
I'm beginning to think I'm just out of place
Won't get in too deep, I want to get some sleep
To be ready for the big one
-- waiting for the big one.

Mirror lyrics:

-- waiting for the big one.
To be ready for the big one
Won't get in too deep, I want to get some sleep
I'm beginning to think I'm just out of place
No real communication moves out of my face
It don't come from what I do
Looking for the real thing
One too many, where ego I go too

Waiting for the big one.
But in the meantime, I'm gonna have me some fun
Someday I'll find myself like a bee finding honey
No trust in judgements no trust in money
spent what I hadn't got, it wasn't hard
Once I was a credit to my credit card

Or we'll all be waiting for the big one.
Sure hope Moses knows his roses
-- like the man says,
'cos I follow my nose and the dried up rose petals
I pray the snow goes, be bad if it settles
Had no money, had no car
Wonder why I'm cold. How did I get this far?

I guess they're waiting for the big one.
Some already in a mess
-- well more or less
everybody come, everybody here
We're celebratin' anticipatin'; end of the year
Here with the hoi-poloi, don't ask me why
The wine's all drunk and so am I
