Waitress Lyrics & Chords By Jane Siberry

I have to clear your table
I wipe it
It's right to keep it clean
so I clean
yes --- I clean
do you clean?
yes --- I clean it
I have to empty ash trays
so I empty them
it's right to keep them clean
so I clean
yes --- I clean
I'm the queen of the clean
...and I'd probably
be famous now
if I wasn't
such a good waitress...
I am a drag at parties
'cause it upsets me
to see so many empties
and I have to pick them up
or I have to go home
...but sometimes I have nightmares
and the ashtrays are filling up
and I can't find my section
and the bottles are flying through the air
like crazy autumn leaves
and I can't find my section
I lost my section
I lost my section
I can't find it
somebody help me please
I am in quicksand
I am in mud to my knees
help me... aaagghhh...
I have to clear your table
excuse me
it's right to keep it clean
so I clean
yes --- I clean
do you clean?
yes --- I clean it
I have to know the regulars
well --- I don't have to
but I like to know their names
and I know them even better
when they're nice to me
... and I'd probably
be famous now
if I wasn't
such a good waitress...
