Working Late Lyrics - Crash Test Dummies

The steaks are getting cold on the table 

I've got the TV on to "That's Incredible" 

Every other woman is hot apple pie 

so why isn't he home on time? 

He's working late 

And there aint nothin in the world that you can do 

to bring him home to you 

'cause when he says he's working late.. 

Oh lord, when we first moved in together 

he just couldn't wait 

to hold me in his arms 

so he'd never hesitate 

talk in words love, make me feel like a little girl 

well now his living in another world 

he's working late 

and there aint nothin in the world that you can do 

to bring him home to you 

'cause when he says he's working late.. 

You give him all the love you could 

and sometimes i give alone 

you think he's looking for something he can't find at home 

well tomorrow night, lets not go home 

-harmonica- 

I just go home, hang out by the tv set 

there aint no more shows on and he aint home yet 

try to close my eyes, and tell myself 

that he would never fall in love with someone else 

he's working late 

and there aint nothin in the world that you can do 

to bring him home to you 

'cause when he says he's working.. 

he's working late 

and there aint nothin in the world that you can do 

to bring him home to you 

'cause when he says he's.. 

he's working late - oh i know he's working 

he's working late - then he just better be working late
