I'll Be Waiting Lyrics
I know you think you're so much better
and we used to get on fine together
now i don't think that will work
you want to see me in the dirt
made suspicious by your awkward glances
im not sorry that we took our chance
now you're heads a bit of a mess
im gonna put it down to success
i'll be waiting for you
when you wanna go
when you wanna go
i'll be waiting for you
when you wanna go
when you wanna go
oh so petty and so pretentious
false opinion, the rising tension
i don't think that will work
you'll never get me in the dirt
made suspicious by your awkward glances
in not sorry that we too out chance
now your heads a bit of a mess
im gonna put it down to success
i'll be waiting for you
when you wanna go
when you wanna go
i'll be waiting for you
when you wanna go
when you wanna go
i'll be waiting for you
when you wanna go
when you wanna go
i'll be waiting for you
when you wanna go
when you wanna go
and we used to get on fine together
now i don't think that will work
you want to see me in the dirt
made suspicious by your awkward glances
im not sorry that we took our chance
now you're heads a bit of a mess
im gonna put it down to success
when you wanna go
when you wanna go
i'll be waiting for you
when you wanna go
when you wanna go
false opinion, the rising tension
i don't think that will work
you'll never get me in the dirt
made suspicious by your awkward glances
in not sorry that we too out chance
now your heads a bit of a mess
im gonna put it down to success
when you wanna go
when you wanna go
i'll be waiting for you
when you wanna go
when you wanna go
when you wanna go
when you wanna go
i'll be waiting for you
when you wanna go
when you wanna go

I have a feeling this may be a pop at the cribs and the songs that they have done about PD (Our Bovine Public, Don't you wanna be relevant).
I know you think you're so much better and we used to get on fine together
The Cribs think they are so much better than the pigeon detectives (and they're right to think they're a better band, don't know whether they're better people), The Cribs and PD used to get on quite well until PD made it big.
im not sorry that we took our chance
PD aren't sorry they took their chance to make it big.
now you're heads a bit of a mess im gonna put it down to success
The Cribs and Ryan Jarman inparticular are arrogant.
oh so petty
The Cribs being petty creating songs about PD, and now PD being petty making a song about TC.
false opinion
The Cribs are maybe wrong to call PD a generic indie band.
i'll be waiting for you when you wanna go
When The Cribs feel like quitting, PD will always be there to take their place as indie kings
Or it could be about how most 'rock-stars' look down on the working class - arrogant.
Or i could be just talking complete nonsense! Haha.
Apparently at the gig at Leeds Academy a few years back (2008?), Matt Bowman exchanged the line "im not sorry that we took our chance" for "Ryan Jarmans a bit of a wanker". So, I was almost right! But: "i'll be waiting for you when you wanna go" Is basically offering them out for a fight.
