They walk in and sit down,
With their mood of the day.
They read books over tea,
They give tips when they pay.
Butter and bread, diet Coke and cake,
She takes notes, she makes no mistakes.

While the jukebox is playin'
The lovers are datin',
[01:24.950
For a thing to explode,
For a light to go on,
For some sign to show
Her time has yet to come.
[02:04.617

She's countin': two three four five
And every minute feels
Just like the one before
No surprise, no twist
She wants so much more
While players are playin'
And lovers are datin',
When will that thing explode
When will that light go on
Just to assure her she's not wrong.
She's countin', from nine to five
She's countin': two three four five.
