[Verse 1]
I'm sitting in the car again
Waiting for you
You said you'd be a minute
But you've been twenty two
See you've got to do your hair
And get it just right
Sometimes you're in the bathroom
For half of the night

[Chorus]
And I'm waiting for you again
Yes I'm waiting for you
And I'm waiting for you again
Tell me what can I do
And I'm waiting for you again
Yes I'm waiting for you
And I'm waiting for you again
Tell me what can I do

[Verse 2]
Now I'm sitting by the phone again
Waiting for your call
You'd said you'd phone at two
And it's a quarter past four
Now I'm standing out the front again
It's late at night
And I'm truly sick to death of sleazy men
Undressing me with their eyes

[Chorus]
And I'm waiting for you again
Yes I'm waiting for you
And I'm waiting for you again
Tell me what can I do
And I'm waiting for you again
Yes I'm waiting for you
And I'm waiting for you again
Tell me what can I do

[Verse 3]
So I'm back from the theater
I watched the show alone
See I waited for you and I missed half act one
Have you never heard of the phone?
I don't like being taken for granted
I'm too nice for my own good
See I do what I say and I say what I do
Is it too much to expect that you could?
I wish you would

[Chorus (Variation)]
I ain't waiting for you no more
I ain't waiting for you
I ain't waiting for you no more
Go find another fool
I ain't waiting for you no more
I ain't waiting for you
I ain't waiting for you no more
It's the usual coup
(I ain't waiting for you no more)
I ain't waiting for you no more
I ain't waiting for you
(I ain't waiting for you no more)
I ain't waiting for you no more
I ain't missing nothing for you
(I ain't waiting for you no more)
I ain't waiting for you no more
I ain't waiting for you
(I ain't waiting for you no more)
I ain't waiting for you no more
Go find another fool
(I ain't waiting for you no more)

[Outro]
I ain't waiting, I ain't waiting
I ain't waiting, I ain't waiting
I ain't waiting, I ain't waiting
I ain't waiting no more, yeah
