Why do let me stay here? 

All by myself 

Why don't you come and play here? 

I'm just sitting on the shelf 



Why don't you sit right down and stay awhile? 

We like the same things and I like your style 

Its not a secret; why do you keep it? 

I'm just sitting on the shelf 



I got to get your presence 

Let's make it known 

I think you're just so pleasant 

I would like you for my own 



Why don't you sit right down and make me smile? (uh huh) 

You make me feel like I am just a child 

Why do you end it? 

Just give me credit 

I'm just sitting on the shelf
