I don't want to be no clock watcher
Standin' in line
I don't want to be someone in love
Wastin' my time
Can I get right to the point, baby
You know I care
Tell me what you want, yeah, baby
And I'm right here

[Chorus:]
Now tell me what it is I'm supposed to do
And someday I'll get to you
But in the meantime
I know what I gotta do
Hurry up and wait, yeah, baby
On your love
Hurry up and wait, yeah, baby
On your love
I don't want to be your standby, girl
Hangin' around

I know you would tell me, baby
If I ever let you down
But I cannot second guess you, huh
From what I see
You're not saying nothin', baby
But I know you want to talk to me, yeah

[Chorus]

Now tell me what it is I'm supposed to do
And someday I'll get to you, girl
But in the meantime
I know what I gotta do
Hurry up and wait, yeah, baby, ooh
On your love
Hurry up and wait, yeah, baby
On your love
Hurry up and wait
I don't want to be your standby, baby
Hangin' around, yeah, girl
I don't want to be someone in love
Wastin' my time

Hurry up and wait, yeah, baby
Waitin' here on your love
[Repeat x 3]
