Lyrics
I sit at home, alone, and I wait
I am so bored and it?s getting too late
If you dropped by, I would be perky ? I?d be there
When the phone rings and I think it is you
And on my machine it?s someone else, too
If you would call, I wouldn?t be lazy ? oh no, I?d be there
If you wanna go for a slurpee
If you wanna go shoot some baskets
Or play some tennis ? I?m there, I?m there, I?m there
If you wanna just go to sleep, I?m there

You knew it but there was no blame . . .
What was I thinking?
If you let me try it again, I?m there, I?m there,
I?m there
Buhta buh buh, buh buh buh buh buh
Buhta buh buh, buh buh buh buh buh
I?m there, I?m there, I?m there
