  • It's just the way the game is played
    It's best if you just wait your turn

    The wait is over, the wait is over
    The wait is over, the wait is over
    The wait is over, the wait is over
    The wait is over, the wait is over

    I pitch with a grenade
    Swing away if you're feeling brave
    There's so much power in my name
    If you pop off and you say it stadium gon' do the wave
    I'm such a fucking lady
    You don't have to be so afraid
    'Cause I got room up on my team you can play but hold up

    It's just the way the game is played
    It's best if you just wait your turn

    It's getting crowded over here, but babe the wait is over
    Sometimes it takes a thousand tries to win, the wait is over
    Fumble, don't you fumble that's a flag on the play
    Babe if you don't wanna then you don't have to wait
    But together we gon' be taking over

    It's just the way the game is played
    It's best if you just wait your turn

    So you don't wanna wait?
    I hate to hear that such a shame
    'Cause if you play it sideways
    Ain't no timeout in my game, they already underway
    I know you want to win
    And you wish I would let you in
    Get in line over here, you can play but hold up

    It's just the way the game is played
    It's best if you just wait your turn

    It's getting crowded over here, but babe the wait is over
    Sometimes it takes a thousand tries to win, the wait is over
    Fumble, don't you fumble that's a flag on the play
    Babe if you don't wanna then you don't have to wait
    But together we gon' be taking over

    It's just the way the game is played
    It's best if you just wait your turn

    Baby put the work in like a champion
    But the crowd is screaming with their hands way up
    Couldn't be with no one else
    You're the only way I'll win
    Baby got the whole world standing up
    Damn I'm glad I picked ya, took a chance on love
    Babe you're up
    The time is now and now the wait is over

    The wait is over, the wait is over
    The wait is over, the wait is over (just wait your turn)
    The wait is over, the wait is over
    The wait is over, the wait is over (just wait your turn)

    It's getting crowded over here, but babe the wait is over
    Sometimes it takes a thousand tries to win, the wait is over
    Fumble, don't you fumble that's a flag on the play
    Babe if you don't wanna then you don't have to wait
    But together we gon' be taking over

    It's just the way the game is played
    It's best if you just wait your turn

    (Just wait your turn)
    The wait is over, the wait is over
