Ever since this morning When you got out of bed You've waited for me to be done And listened when I said I just need five more minutes I won't be very long I know I said that earlier But I guess that I was wrong Can't you read another book Or watch some more TV? I just need five more minutes Please sit there patiently. I'm sure there's something you can do Is all your homework done? I've got a list of things to do And I'm checkin' off each one Everytime you call my name To see if I am ready Makes it take much longer and I've told you twice already I just need five more minutes So go wait in the car You think you're bein patient But I don't think you are Why don't you call up Grandma? She'll always talk to you I just need five more minutes And then I will be through I know its gotten really late I'm still not done you know Just wait until tomorrow I promise we will go I promise we will go
