<poem>Can't stand waiting, never ending
But I'm still on the side
And I hate you so much, never ending
And I've been on too long
Where I go I just don't know
But I'll take my time to rocket
Slowly through ???
So I'll take my time to rock your mind
Can't stand waiting, never ending
I'm still on the side
And I hate you so much, never ending
I've been on too long
Where I go I just don't know
But I'll take my time to rocket
Slowly through ???
So I'll take my time to rock your mind
Where I go I just don't know
But I'll take my time to rocket
Slowly through ???
And I'll take my time to rock your mind, oh</poem></tabber>
