Stuart Davis – Waiting My Turn lyrics

Once simple point you've seemingly missed
Is the slight inconvenience that I still exist
But I'll try to stay more to myself
God knows I'm greedy to covet your time
And who could endure such a self-centered crime
There's one simple way for your love to be earned
By shutting my mouth and waiting my turn

If you get a free minute, if you're in between men
If my number comes up
If you think there's a time when
You'll have me at your beck and call
I can't comprehend what it is you expect when
You whitewash your partner in selfish neglect
You may be with him, but I'm holding firm
To shutting my mouth and waiting my turn

There's no hidden meaning for you to discern
I'm shutting my mouth, I'm waiting my turn
The rules are so simple, but I'm slow to learn
I'm shutting my mouth, I'm waiting my turn
My heart is so soft and your voice is so stern
I'm shutting my mouth, keep waiting my turn

If you get a free minute
If you're in between men
If my number comes up
If you think there's a time when
You'll have me at your beck and call
I can't comprehend what it is you expect when
You whitewash your partner in selfish neglect
You may be with him, but I'm holding firm
To shutting my mouth and waiting my turn
