The bell rings, school's out

Friends go crazy, teachers shout

Time slips by, a year is gone

Guess I'll kick another summer back

And sing this song

Don'tcha know that

(CHORUS)

Sittin' on a throne won't make u king

Starin' at the phone won't make it ring

Tryin' not to lose won't win no game

Wastin' love's just a cryin' shame

Cryin' shame

Just a cryin' shame

In the hall day after day

We check each other out yeah, then look away

How long can this game last

Before this heart of mine stops beatin' fast

Don'tcha know that

Sittin' on a throne won't make u king

Starin' at the phone won't make it ring

Tryin' not to lose won't win no game

Wastin' luv's just a cryin' shame

Cryin' shame

And if ur waitin' 4 me 2 make a move

I hope u've got a better plan, bcuz

When it cums 2 boys playin it cool

This city girl is old school

Don'tcha know that

Sittin' on a throne won't make u king

Starin' at the phone won't make it ring

Tryin' not to lose won't win no game

Wastin' luv's just a cryin' shame

1 good reason don't make no rhyme

Actin' shy's just a waste of my time

Let's take 2 candles and make 1 flame

Wastin' luv's just a cryin' shame

Just a cryin' shame

A cryin' shame
