Gwen Stefani - What You Waiting For Emotional Alternate Ending Version Lyrics

[Intro]
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock
La, la, la, la, la, la, la

[Verse 1]
Like a cat in heat stuck in a moving car
A scary conversation, shut my eyes, can't find the brake
What if they say that you're a climber?
Naturally I'm worried if I do it alone
Who really cares? 'Cause it's your life
You never know, it could be great
Take a chance 'cause you might grow
Oh, oh-oh

[Chorus]
What you waiting, what you waiting
What you waiting, what you waiting
What you waiting for?
What you waiting, what you waiting
What you waiting, what you waiting
What you waiting for?

[Refrain]
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Take a chance, you stupid
[Verse 2]
Like an echo pedal, you're repeating yourself
You know it all by heart, why are you standing in one place? (Uh-huh)
Born to blossom, bloom to perish
Your moment will run out 'cause of your sex chromosome
I know it's so messed up how our society all thinks (For sure)
Life is short, you're capable (Uh-huh)
Oh, oh-oh

[Pre-Chorus]
Look at your watch now
You're still a super-hot female
You got your million-dollar contract
And they're all waiting for your hot track!

[Chorus]
What you waiting, what you waiting
What you waiting, what you waiting
What you waiting for?
What you waiting, what you waiting
What you waiting, what you waiting
What you waiting for?

[Bridge]
I can't wait to go back and do Japan
Get me lots of brand new fans
Osaka, Tokyo
You Harajuku girls
Damn, you've got some wicked style... go!
[Pre-Chorus]
Look at your watch now
You're still a super-hot female
You got your million-dollar contract
And they're all waiting for your hot track!

[Chorus]
What you waiting, what you waiting
What you waiting, what you waiting
What you waiting for?
What you waiting, what you waiting
What you waiting, what you waiting
What you waiting for?

[Outro]
What you waiting for?
What you waiting for?
Take a chance, you stupid (What you waiting for?)
You're so talented (It's now or it's never)
You're the best in the world (I cannot do this, I cannot do this)
Take a chance, you stupid (I cannot do this)
La, la, la, la, la, la, la (I'm not good enough)
(You're perfection)
What you waiting for?
What you waiting for?
Take a chance, you stupid (What you waiting for?)
Get up
Mediocre is a choice
You can get up and achieve anything you want to do (I can do this)
Take a chance, you stupid (I'm perfect) (At any second and if you are not doing that)
Get up right now
Go
