Lyrics for What Else Is There To Do (But Think About You)

Oh you heard this before And my punchline is poor, here's a funny twist. (Here's a funny twist...) I don't go out and roam, I prefer to be at home, at a time like this. (At a time like this...) Since you walked out that door, I don't care anymore, girl I barely exist. Oh baby, what else is there to do But sit here and think about you? (Oh no!) Oh baby, what else is there to do But sit here and think about you? People say not to worry, You'll be home in a hurry, to comfort me. (Just to comfort me...) But it's not my composure, It's the sudden exposure, that's worrying me. Oh baby, what else is there to do But sit here and think about you? (You lovely thing you!) Oh baby, what else is there to do But sit here and think about you? You can check my willpower At this very hour, girl I think you'd find it was pretty low. I just sit here and brood, And I really don't mean to be rude, but the truth? Girl I think you'll find it so. Oh baby, what else is there to do But sit here and think about you? (Oh oh ohhhh...) So you think I should date, And not anticipate, your sweet return. (Sweet return...) But I must follow my mind, And pretend to be blind, where you're concerned. Oh baby, what else is there to do But sit here and think about you? Oh baby, what else is there to do But sit here and think about you? (Don't wanna talk to neighbors or hear from friends...) Oh baby, what else is there to do But sit here and think about you? (Ain't gonna answer my phone, wanna be left alone...)
