Verse1
Six numbers, one more to dial
Before I'm before you
I tried to call,'been busy all night
Gave up waiting at daylight
[Bridge1 sounding-stuff]
Excuse me, Ms. Busybody
Could you pencil me in when you can?
Though we both know that the worst part about it
Is I would be free when you wanted me
Chorus
I am the man on the side
Hoping you'll make up your mind
I am the one who will swallow his pride
Life as the man on the side
Verse again
instrumental only)]
Verse2
same as verse 1)]
One of the many, but one of the few
To stand back and wait for you
[Bridge1 Again]
Chorus again
Bridge2
I fell in love with the dream that I built of you
Playing the part of the queen
Taking my own advice, I'm giving up tonight
Good luck to you and the king
Solo
Bridge3
like Bridge1 with a little more intensity)]
Excuse me, Ms. Busybody
Could you pencil me in when you can?
Though we both know that the worst part about it
Is I would be free when you wanted me
And then big exciting ending Chorus
