The Waiting Game
Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen · Other Songs - Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen
Who made up the rules to this silly game?
It's no fun at all
Wishing he would call
Standing around hoping for some guy to drop the ball
Chorus
Waiting, Wait, Waiting
Cause everybody's playing the waiting game
Waiting, Wait, Waiting
It doesn't even matter if you both feel the same
Waiting, Wait, Waiting
Come on make your move, baby you're driving me insane
Waiting, Wait, Waiting
Everybody's playing the waiting game
I think I'll call him up to see what's going on
Check it out and see what's taking him so long
I got a feeling that he wants to take me to the dance
What if he says no?
Well I gotta take the chance
Chorus
I think I can do it
Yo girls back me up
Pick up the phone and let him know what's up
I'm ready to do it
Rushin' it to it
He might turn me down well I gotta go through it
Chorus
It doesn't even matter if you both feel the same
Waiting, Wait, Waiting
And Everybody's playing the waiting game
