Píseň: Miss Butter's Lament

Interpret:
Harry Nilsson
Album:
Pandemium Shadow Show
Waiting around for the first breath of spring
Nobody else seems to care
She waits patiently for the knowledge that she will 
Have so much to give to someone


Waiting around for the knock at the door
Gentleman callers beware
Hoping to see all the flowers and candy he's offered her
In every dream she's ever had


Mmmmmmm
She don't mind all the waiting around for someone to come along
Knows she's about to be found before too long
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba 
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba 


She don't mind all the waiting around for someone to come along
Knows she's about to be found before too long


Waiting around for the first breath of spring,
She never noticed the snow on the ground.
Spring never made it;
Somebody delayed it
For her again
Like the year before
And the year before
And the year before
And the year before
And the year before
