VERSE 1:
Em Cmaj7
It’s out of my hands and all I can do it wait

It’s the not knowing that has put me in this state

The minutes feel like hours, the tension is too great
I’ve done my part so now it’s in the hands of fate...
CHORUS 1:
Em C
Waiting for my AIDS test to come back
D B7
I shouldn’t have fucked that prostitute without a prophylactic
Em C
Waiting for my AIDS test to come back
D B7
Regret is dripping from me like my semen down her crack
Em
And now I wait…
VERSE 2:
Em Cmaj7
My nerves, they have been frayed; my pants, they have been shat
Am
I know the nurse will say, “It’s time to have a chat”

At least I’ll never worry about getting... fat

I should think positive – no, wait, I didn’t say that!
CHORUS 2:
Em C
Waiting for my AIDS test to come back

I never should have blown the tranny in my Cadillac
Em C
Waiting for my AIDS test to come back
D B7
I just had to taste that sweet, forbidden nectar from his sack
Em
And now I wait…
VERSE 3:
Em Cmaj7
Is it over, will my jersey be retired?
Am
Will my name stitched upon a quilt be required?
B7 (stop)
Did I make a difference, was my life inspired?
N/C
Will Denzel Washington defend me when I’m fired?
CHORUS 3:
Em C
Waiting for my AIDS test to come back
D B7
Eating assholes shouldn’t be an aphrodisiac
Em C
Waiting for my AIDS test to come back

If I’m clean I swear to God I will stop shooting smack... probably

I tell you, AIDS is everywhere (!)
