Lyrics

Let's lock the door and throw away the key now

(shom dooby-dum dooby-dum-dum)

I can't wait to kiss you (oh no)

One little minute more

We met at a party last week

And the moment your eyes looked into mine

Right then I just forgot how to speak

And the soda started tastin' like wine

How I wished everyone would go home

So I could say when I got you alone

Come on now

Let's lock the door and throw away the key now

(shom dooby-dum dooby-dum-dum)

I can't wait to kiss you (oh no)

One little minute more

We started to talk and you smiled

Sorta like you knew the way that I felt

You moved a little closer in a while

Then I knew my heart was startin' to melt

There was just so much I wanted to say

But all the words came out this way

Come on now

Let's lock the door and throw away the key now

(shom dooby-dum dooby-dum-dum)

I can't wait to kiss you (oh no)

One little minute more

Ahhhhh no! Oh yeah

No! Oh yeah

I'll kiss your lips like a kiss oughta be

And then I know you'll be sayin' to me

Come on now

Let's lock the door and throw away the key now

(shom dooby-dum dooby-dum-dum)

I can't wait to kiss you (oh no)

One little minute more
