The Dismemberment Plan
Waiting
[Verse 1]
Well look who it is, been a little while since you been up in my biz
And you just had to come this bar, this night, all right
Well you know it's my spot, never mind I'm sure that you forgot
Do you even know my name, I bet we all do look the same
[Chorus]
I'm the one that you kept waiting, kept speculating, kept anticipating
While I was keeping faith you kept calculating, so frustrating
Like a clock that ticks and ticks but never moves and never grooves
Ain't got the time for waiting
[Verse 2]
You know what, there's a bar
I don't even really know who you are
Hey your new man wants to fight, I see him right there, like you don't have a type
I know everybody working, and they know you, they saw you lurking
They remember you jerking my chain, so your drinks never come
[Chorus]
And you can blame the one that you kept waiting
Kept speculating, kept anticipating
While I was keeping faith you kept calculating, so frustrating
Like a clock that ticks and ticks but never moves and never grooves
Ain't got the time for waiting
[Bridge]
You know I changed my life for you
For promises that won't come true
I'd do it all again you know
You can't give up on love
But for someone that who cares
Isn't only out for theirs
I'm just waiting, anticipating someone who will treat me great
Knows that I ain't second rate and wants a love that feels like fate
Doesn't use their love for bait to get what they want and keep you hating
Thank you for the education, no more need for conversation!
[Chorus]
I'm the one that you kept waiting, kept speculating, kept anticipating
While I was keeping faith you kept calculating, so frustrating
Like a clock that ticks and ticks but never moves and never grooves
Ain't got the time for waiting
[Outro]
I ain't got the time for waiting
I ain't got the time!
