Lyrics: (There are quite a few parts where I'm unsure of the correct lyrics.)

(play part 1)

I can hardly wait.

I can hardly wait.

I can hardly wait.

I can hardly wait.

(play part 2)

It's been so long

I've lost my taste

say, 'Angel come"

said, 'Lick my face"

lift all your drapes

I'll play the part

I'll open this mouth wide

eat your heart

(part 1)

ah...your heart...

I can hardly wait.

I can hardly wait.

I can hardly wait.

I can hardly wait.

(part 2)

Lips crack dry

tongue blue burns

said, "Angel come"

said, "Lick my thirst"

It's been so long

I've lost my taste

you run me around

make my water break

(part 1)

oh...oh...

In my glass coffin I am waiting.

In my glass coffin I am waiting.

In my glass coffin I am waiting.

In my glass coffin I am waiting.

(part 2)

In my glass coffin I am waiting.

In my glass coffin I am waiting.

In my glass coffin I am waiting.

In my glass coffin I am waiting.
