Lyrics

Pack your bags and leave this town
I don't wanna see you coming round
No, I don't wanna waste my precious time again

With a Star Trek sticker on your Cadillac
I don't wanna see you coming back
No, I don't wanna see your gloomy face again

    Waiting takes more time than letting go

Sitting at a stop sign wasting time
When I'd rather be speeing on the 99
This relationship just won't shift out of neutral

You say that you'll be ready soon
I've already heard that tune
And I don't think you're ready for a new role

    Waiting takes more time than letting go
    Waiting takes more time than letting go

Take your car or hop a train
Call a cab or fly a plane
I'm sick of waiting in this intersection

Waiting takes time and I ain't got it
Got my shirt all buttoned and my shoes all knotted
And I gotta start moving in some vague direction

    Waiting takes more time than letting go
    Waiting takes more time than letting go

Go away, and get your foot off of my brakes
