WATIO, WATIO, when all this is over
we'll recover the car from the ditch where we drove her
we'll go to the bars, nevermind the hangover
again
Don't think of the money that this all is costing
I don't feel like cooking, another's dinner's defrosting
Ain't exactly hard work but god damn it's exhausting
by now
(chorus)
The days march on, just like before
We say to each other we can't take no more
We ask, are these the last days of the war?
WATIO, WATIO, when all this is over
We'll gather at the table a little bit closer
But we'll sit on the porch every time I come over
for now
Don't think of the danger that we all ignored
Hope the price that we pay is one we can afford
We're a little bit scared and a little bit bored
right now
(chorus)
The days march on, just like before
We say to each other we can't take no more
We ask, are these the last days of the war?
(solo)
It's been dark so long it must be nearly dawn
But hopeful predictions have often been wrong
And it goes on and on and on and on and on
WATIO, WATIO, when all this is over...
