The Beautiful Waitress - Terry Allen

    Well it's not silly
    When she brings you your chili
    To grab a cracker
    And distract her...with a crunch
    A cracker crunch
    'Cause you'll only see her once
    Only this one time at lunch
    And she might as well see you too
    Ahhh...it's the last time
    You're passing through
    And it's not rude
    When she takes away your food
    To touch her fingers
    And let them linger awhile with your loneliness
    A cracker crunch
    'Cause you'll only touch her once
    Only this one time at lunch
    And she might as well touch you too
    Ahhh...it's the last time
    You're passin through
    So it's not strange
    When she brings you your change
    To bend down and kiss her
    And whisper you'll miss her...forever
    A cracker crunch
    'Cause you'll only love her once
    Only this one time at lunch
    And she might as well love you too
    Ahhh...it's the last time
    You're passin through
    Recitation:
    A waitress asked me what I did
    I told her I tried (to make art).
    She asked me if I made any money.
    I said no...I have to "teach" to do that.
    She asked me what I taught and where.
    I told her.
    She told me that she liked art, but that she
    couldn't draw a straight line.
    I told her if she could reach for something
