Mary Street

Time is up girl, now
No more excusin' you
And those books you read
Oh girl, you'd better review.
Oh oh oh, Mary Street
Lookin' out your door
Oh oh oh, Mary Street
Now, what are you waiting for
(What are you waiting for).
You thought that cool
Was in someone else's shoes and make-up
Sitting in your room
Waiting for the moment to come.
Oh oh oh, Mary Street
Lookin' out your door
Oh oh oh, Mary Street
Now, what are you waiting for
(What are you waiting for).
Aaaah, aaaah, aaaah
Aaaah, aaaah, aaaah.
You got no tears for
All the guys that passed you by
All the girls that shut you out
They won't recognize you now.
You're a big girl, now
No more (no more) excusin' (excusin') you
And those books you read
Oh girl, you'd better review.
Oh oh oh, Mary Street
Lookin' out your door
Oh oh oh, Mary Street
Now, what are you waiting for
(What are you waiting for).
Oh oh oh, Mary Street
Lookin' out your door
Oh oh oh, Mary Street
Oh yeah (aah aah) oh yeah.
