[Verse 1]
Welcome to Mars! It's open all hours
"What are we doing here?"
Bill's in the back and Fred's on the phone, sayin'
"What are we doing here?" (Oh, he was sayin' that?)
You are never alone in the Twilight Zone
"What are we doing here?"

[Chorus]
Waiting. For. Mary
Waiting. For. Mary
Waiting. For. Mary
Oh

[Verse 2]
I oughta know but my memory is goin'
"What are we doing here?"
As bad as it seems, maybe we're dreamin'
"What are we doing here?"
Don't mind the stares we've paid for these chairs
"What are we doing here?"
And keep up that smile, it might be awhile
"What are we doing here?"

[Chorus]
Waiting. For. Mary
Waiting. For. Mary
Waiting. For. Mary
Oh
[Bridge]
Oh, I
Wonder why
She can't be
On time
Ever?

[Verse 3]
What do you know, it had to be snowing!
"What are we doing here?"
I'm down on my knees, I'm begging you please
"What are we doing here?"
Oh, what do you see? Why, it had to be me!
"What are we doing here?" (Sayin'... I was sayin'... What?)
Now, one at a time or all in a line, say it:
"What are we doing here?"

[Chorus]
Waiting. For. Mary
Waiting. For. Mary
Waiting. For. Mary
Oh

[Outro]
What are we doing here?
What are we doing here?
What are we doing here?
What are we doing here?
Waiting. For. Mary
Waiting. For. Mary
