Elias & The Wizzkids - Waste Of Time lyrics

rate me

There is a girl who runs around in this town

She’s very pretty, but I am sure she would turn me down

If I would ever dare to ask her out

There is no reason to

So why should I?

I’m sure she’s just another hipster girl

Probably smart, the kind that actually cares about art

I bet she did “the London year” after school

And now nothing back here could ever be that cool

I try to follow every step she takes

I work discrete I can’t afford mistakes

I know her name I read the blog she makes

I love the way she writes

I wonder where I’ve seen that guy before

Maybe just a neighbour living right here next door

He seems to be about the same age as I

And pretty cute but he’s got no sense of style

I am so tired of those play in band guys

Met them before and now I know their kind

I bet he’s lazy and just biding his time

Waiting for his breakthrough that just will not arrive

But I can’t help myself from wondering how

It would be like to get to know that guy

I’m pretty sure that he is not my kind but what if he is the one

I try to follow every step she takes

I work discrete I can’t afford mistakes

I know her name I read the blog she makes

I love the way she writes

Well what could happen if I just said hey?

Maybe she’d laugh at me and then just walk her way

Or maybe stay, get flattered by my ways

And take me out for a date

He has probably never read a book in his life

What would he say and what could we talk about?

Maybe the difference is good for me

And maybe together we could be free

No this is just a silly waste of time

I’ve got to get this person off my mind

There is nothing there for me but empty ground

Where nothing can be found
