I Can't Wait

White Stripes, The · White Blood Cells

I can't wait till you
try to come back girl
when things they don't
work out for you
who do you think you 're
messing with girl?
what do you think
you're trying to do?

Who do you think you're messing with girl?
What do you think you're trying to do?
Do really think i wanna be like that girl?
who do you think you're trying to fool?

First you said I was blind
and it's gonna be different this time
I thought you made up your mind
I thought you made up your mind
I thought you made up, I thought you made up
I thought you made up your mind

So many times I've gotten used to this
this old idea of being all alone
tell me how I'm supposed to
get through with this?
I wish this house felt like a home

Who do you think you're messing with with girl?
What do you think you're trying to do?
Do really think I wanna be like that girl?
Who do you think you're trying to fool?

First you said I was blind
you certainly took your time
I thought you made up your mind
I thought you made up your mind, yeah
I thought you made up, I thought you made up
I thought you made up your mind
