You keep me waiting till it's getting aggravating
You're a slowpoke
I wait and worry but you never seem to hurry
You're a little slowpoke
Time means nothing to you
I wait and then
Late again
Eight o'clock, nine o'clock, a quarter to ten
Why must you linger every time I snap my finger?
Little slowpoke
Why can't you hasten when you see that time's a-wastin'?
You're a slowpoke, dear
Why should I keep trying to change you?
It's not the thing to do
I guess I'll have to learn to be a slow
Slowpoke, too
Will you keep me waiting till it's getting aggravating?
You're a slowpoke
Slowpoke
I wait and worry but you never seem to hurry
You're a slowpoke
I wait and worry but you never seem to hurry
You're a little slowpoke
Where'd they come from?
Time means nothing to you
I wait and then
Late again
Eight o'clock, nine o'clock, a quarter to ten
Why must you linger every time I snap your finger?
Little slowpoke
Why can't you hasten when you see that time's a-wastin'?
You're a slowpoke, dear
Why should I keep trying to change you?
