lyrics

Waiting on the waitress to calculate what I’ve spent. Waiting while the waitress calls her talent agent.
Then I’m going to take her out tonight! I’m going to take her out tonight!
And she’s going to serve me well.

Waiting on the waitress to let down her hair. Waiting to get her number with the pencil from her ear,
Then I’m going to take her out tonight! I’m going to take her out tonight!
And she’s going to serve me well.

I’m swimming in her coffee-coloured eyes. I’m beginning to wake up and smell a compromise.
She has stars in her eyes and a script in her hand but tonight I’ll be her Cary Grant.

I’m brimming over in those coffee-coloured eyes.
There are stars in those eyes and a script in her hand but tonight I’ll be her Marlon Brando
Whoa! Whoa!

Waiting on the waitress to get off her shift. Waiting on the waitress to collect her tips.
Then she’s going to take me out tonight! She’s going to take me out tonight!
And I’m going to serve her well.

I’m going to take her out tonight! I’m going to take her out tonight!
And she’s going to serve me well. Well. Well.

I’m going to take her out tonight!
