Standing in a Queue Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Flying in from Dallas, home to see my girl
I got my bags, I'm ready to rock
I've been around the world
As I came around the corner the chaos came in view
A thousand silent people waiting in the queue

[Pre-Chorus]
There's got to be a better way to get me out of here

[Chorus]
I'm standing in a queue
I don't know what to do
I haven't got a clue
Why I'm standing in a queue

[Verse 2]
Driving through the countryside, taking in the view
I got to get a little break and get myself some food
I pulled into the truck stop, I didn't have a clue
Two thousand other people waiting in the queue

[Pre-Chorus]
There's got to be a better way to get us out of here

[Chorus]
We're standing in a queue
We don't know what to do
We're trying to make it through
We're just standing in a queue

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
It shouldn't be so difficult to find a better way
I can think of better things to do than standing here all-day
Someone needs to get a grip, we need another plan
Let's raise our voices up on high and stick it to the man

[Pre-Chorus]
There's got to be a better way to make it out of here

[Chorus]
I'm standing in a queue
I don't know what to do
We're trying to make it through
We're standing in a queue
Standing in a queue
I'm trying to get to you
We're trying to make it through
We're just standing in a queue
