From the recording 1983 • No Borders Here
Lyrics
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
'cuz 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...
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
