Greetings from a Doomsayer Pesthouse Lyrics

Hiding under floorboards

Hands over the mouths of children

Crying with a whisper

Never question your lord

Or your father or your mother

We've been waiting, wanting nothing

And no one ever noticed

We rolled out the red carpet

For the doomsayers

And threw roses at their feet

Before we washed them

And placed warm towels

On their beloved foreheads

We've been waiting, wanting nothing

And no one ever noticed

We've been waiting, kneeling, praying

And no one ever gave in

We've been waiting, wanting nothing

And no one ever noticed

We've been waiting, kneeling, praying

And no one ever gave in
