I′m holding sings up On your street corner stops Like most you try not to see me You stare straight ahead Ignore the responsibility Excuse me...excuse me Mr. I′ve been waiting in line And I′d like to buy some of your time I′m very anxious, eager, willing What′s your billing?
[Chorus:] So please excuse me Mr. You′ve got things all wrong You make it feel like a crime So don′t confuse me Mr. I′ve known you too long All I need is a little of your time
For most love comes for free They don′t pay the high cost Of mental custody I′ll pay bail for a guarantee Please make space for me In the time yet to be
Excuse me...excuse me Mr. I′ve been waiting in line And I′d like to buy Some of your time I′ve been saving up my life What′s your price?
[Chorus:] What should I do I′m about to crack And there′s a force That comes over me It′s almost as if I′m tied to the tracks And I′m waiting for him To rescue me The funny thing is He′s not going to come He′s not going to find me This is a matter of fact The desire you lack This is the way I guess it has to be...
A little of your time I need a little of your time Please,a little of your time
[Chorus:] I′m in line to buy time I′m in line to buy time
Excuse meexcuse me what′s your name again wait a sec wait a sec I don′t understand tell me tell me your last heroic action a cat you drown just for kicks kick a man when he′s down
Laugh laugh tell me all your stories play your games play your games kill with ugly names Gun down shoot down another little bird
But I′ll wait yeah I′ll wait and I′ll watch and I′ll watch you while
You get back what you give what you do turns back on you gets back to back to you then I′ll ask you hey, how are you now?
Excuse me excuse me I think your hands are dirty heard you say heard you say to be on top you gotta Step on them step on them ′cause you′re the one and only
but I′ll wait yeah I′ll wait and I′ll watch and I′ll watch you while
You get back what you give what you do turns back on you gets back to back to you then I′ll ask you hey, how are you
