Jon Latham - Waitressing Sucks lyrics

Artist: Jon Latham

album: Real Bad News


She tries to fall back to sleep
When she wakes from her dreams
So she can carry on living in a world by herself
She mutes her voice to a whisper
Still it sounds like a scream
She's pressured in her mind for a story to tell
For a story to tell
I come in in the evening
Ask her how her day's been
She just rolls her eyes and says waitressing sucks
Well I know it's not your style
But atleast it's a living
Sometimes she cracks a smile and says not by much
'Cause everything I want is still so far out of touch
She don't want to be a memory
She don't want to be a muse
Oh she knows she's so much more than a name
In a land thrown away just as soon as it's been used
Don't let a disposition be the first thing to fool you
She knows you want much more than just a peck on the cheek
But by her own admition
She knows that she can play the fool too
She's been waking up too lonely, with some lipstick streeks
With an empty hearted promise that he's calling next week
She don't want to be a memory
She don't want to be a muse
Oh she knows she's so much more than a name
In a land thrown away just as soon as it's been used
And she worries about the weather
About the rain and the snow
So scared that all the clouds above will stop all of the colors she shows
And I tell her that I'm helpless
I just don't know what to do
She says don't worry in the middle of the night
I'm burning my white while you're stuck in the shade of blue
She tries to fall back to sleep
When she wakes from her dreams
So she can carry on living a life more than this
But she wakes anyway
Smiles through her own gritted teeth
She's trying to find a way along the map of her wrist
She wants a taste of her freedom
You just want a taste of her kiss
She don't want to be a memory
She don't want to be a muse
Oh she knows she's so much more than a name
In a land thrown away just as soon as it's been used
She don't want to be a waitress
She don't want to be confused
For the girl who wants to be a name
In a land thrown away just as soon as it's been used
She knows she's so much more than a name
In a land thrown away just as soon as it's been used
