I’ll Get Back to You [Unit 3]
Your camera isn’t working right. Let me think it over and
It needs a few repairs. I’ll get back to you.
You make me ship it overnight. I’m really reliable,
Nothing else compares. incredibly fast,
You had to lengthen your new skirt, extremely helpful
and now you want to get from first to last.
someone to wash your fancy shirts Let me see what I can do.
and dry them when they’re wet. Day after day,
Come a little closer— everybody knows
let me whisper in your ear. I always do what I say.
Is my message getting across
(CHORUS)
to you loud and clear?
(CHORUS)
You’re always making plans.
I’ll tell you what I’ll do:
let me think it over and
I’ll get back to you.
You want to get your suit dry-cleaned.
You want to get someone
to shorten your new pair of jeans
and call you when they’re done.
I guess I’ll have them print a sign
and hang it on your shelf,
with four small words in one big line:
“Just do it yourself.”
Let me tell you what this song
is really all about.
I’m getting tired of waiting while you
figure it out.
I’ve heard all your demands,
but I have a life too.
