This song, as many of Chad's songs, is a short story centered around a person, in this case, "The Waitress."
I am not quite sure exactly what the song is about but I have a rough idea. So here we go.
It seems as though The Waitress just got a phone call from a pay phone, and she just got some kind of tragic news. This is the part what im not quite sure about, i think it may be that she just found out that her husband was killed in the war, or something tragic like that.
So The Waitress is simply shocked about what she just heard, and is pretty much not even paying attention to her job. Every one else that works their is worried about her, and also scared, so they try to keep away.
Then, she gets up and starts going insane, and has all the other workers backing against the wall. The manager tries to calm her down, while she is fumbles with the drawer. Which i think means that she is reaching for a knife to commit suicide.
I'm not sure if she actually does commit suicide, but i think she might have.
That is my attempt at an inturpretation, I know that i didnt get it exactly right, but its the main idea.
