Excuses

Catch me a dime for charity
 Because perfect change is what matters to me
 Pinch every penny and stroll to the bank
 Beg for a loan on my humble estate
 Teddy, Georgie, sweet Benjamin
 My terrible friends
 They never call or even pretend
 To worry about me when money is thin
 I can't afford to fall in love
 No I can't afford to fall in love
 (Excuses, excuses)
 Yeah I got plenty of other
 (Excuses, excuses)
 I can't afford to fall in
 Ooh, la la la la la la
 Ah, ah, la la la la
 No time for this, no time for that
 No time for patience, no time for all that
 No time to know that I'm out of my league
 No time to get myself back on my feet
 No time for you, no time for me
 No time for lessons, no time to be free
 No time for good times of sweet memories
 No time for stragglers or sympathy
 'Cause I don't have time to fall in love
 I don't have time to fall in love
 No no no, not today
 Maybe tomorrow is too far away
 Can I change before my time runs out?
 I can't wait for the phone to ring
 I can't wait for summer, I can't wait for spring
 I can't wait for someone who can't wait for me
 I can't wait to fall in love
 I can't wait for the phone to ring
 I can't wait for summer, I can't wait for spring
 I can't wait for someone who can't wait for me
 I can't wait to fall in love
 I can't wait for the phone to ring
 I can't wait for summer, I can't wait for spring
 I can't wait for someone who can't wait for me
 I can't wait
 I just can't wait
 Oooh, oooh, oh
 (Excuses, excuses, excuses)
 Oooh
 (Excuses, excuses)
