Artist/Band: Joe Jackson
Lyrics for Song: The Verdict
Lyrics for Album: Body & Soul [1984]



Did you do me right? Did I do right by you?

When I bared my soul it seems you did not hear

Can this be true? Am I fool to fight?

I could do just what you say



But I'm following my heart

And that takes me another way

It's not easy when there's no one

One giving prizes at the end



Waiting in the wings

Wishing that the band would start to play

As the show begins

Wonder what the critics have to say



Waiting

Waiting

For the verdict



Some people live so fast, they're so scared of getting old

Some people keep on working

All they do is line their graves with gold

We don't know what happens when we die



We only know we die too soon

But we have to try or else our world becomes a waiting room

Would you testify for me?

I think I'd do the same for you



Waiting in the dark

Waiting for the phone to ring all day

My witness disappears

Wonder what the jury has to say



Waiting

Waiting

Waiting

Waiting

Waiting
