Waitresses Wise Up
This meeting will now come to order
Please, take your seats!
The minutes of the last meeting will be read, the minutes of the last meeting will be read.
Old business, new business, there's a motion on the floor
That we review new applications, state your qualifications, BE SPECIFIC!
Pounding my head against a brick wall
Finally got smart, wised up, gon'na look out for myself now
I know better now.
I know better now.
Won't do it again
Won't do it again
Tell us about yourself
What events have brought you to us?
How did you reach this decision?
Are you aware of our function?
The consequences and restrictions
Of this organization
Be reminded we are listening for slip-ups
Indicating a lack of conviction!
Gave myself a little credit, I won't repeat
Past mistakes, mistrust convictions,
Learn from my experiences
I know better now, I know better now
Won't do it again, won't do it again
Administer the serum! Where's that list of questions?
We all know why we're here
So let's get right to it!
There must be order, there must be order.
Shocking revelations, we are all deeply affected
But how many times?
How many times must they get burned
Before they learn to face the lesson
Re-condition their behaviour
Re-programme their responses?
Only stupid people fail to see
That it's a bad thing, maybe in the 80s, but I doubt it
Maybe in the 80s, but I doubt it
Maybe in the 80s, but I doubt it
We're concerned about our members
(I know better now)
Ours is a very select group
(Won't do it again)
Go home and think about it
(I know better now)
Come back tomorrow, we'll talk some more
(Won't do it again)
Okay Gentlemen, let's break early;
We've all got things to do.
