Lyrics

Can I get you to give me a minute of your time?
Can I get you to slip me the answer?
Can I get you to show me a little of your mime?
You were always a very good dancer.

I'd be happy to show you a bit of what I found,
I'd be happy to share in its beauty,
I'd be happy to lay low inevitably bound,
I would only be doing my duty.

I wait, I wait, I can wait. I can wait back in the bar.
I can wait, I can wait, I can wait back in the car.
I'll be waiting for you.

Stranglehold, you know you've got one on me,
I don't want to go without you.
Stranglehold, you've got me where you want me,
But I want to know more about you.
I want to know more about you.

Are you willing to wager a little of your life?
Are you willing to take such a gamble?
Are you ready to walk on the edge of the knife?
Then I think we can skip the preamble.

I wait, I wait, I can wait. I can wait.
I can wait back in the bar, I can wait, I can wait,
I can wait back in the car, I'll be waiting for you.
I'll be waiting...

Stranglehold, you know you've got one on me,
I don't want to go without you.
Stranglehold, you've got me where you want me,
And I want to know more about you.
I want to know more about you.

I can wait, I can wait back in the bar.
I can wait, I can wait, I can wait back in the car.
I'll be waiting for you.
