Edge of my Seat

Popcorn bags have long been emptied
Floor is sticky, floor is sticky!
Advertisements fill the screen
Oxi-clean, Oxi-clean!
Everyone goes to the restroom
Get in line, wait your turn!
Washing, talking, taking time
Get in line, wait in line!

I sit
Intermission
Patient, waiting for the show
I wish
Interruption
Would pass by before I go
(He said) Loony!
(She said) Loony!
(They said) Loony!
(She said) Loony!
Leave me be, leave me alone

Patiently, I wait for hours
Intermission, Intermission!
My date went home and went to bed
Intermission, sleep prescription!
I just want to know what happens
Edge of my seat! Edge of my seat!
Who has lived and who is dead?
What she said, rest your head!

I slump
Intermission
Patience has gone out the door
I wish
That I knew
That this would happen, 'fore the show
(He said) Loony!
(She said) Loony!
(She said) Loony! Loony, Loony!
Leave me be, leave me alone
