INTRO: (x1)
VERSE 1:
Why do you let me stay here,
All by myself?
Why don't you come and play here?
I’m just sitting on the shelf
VERSE 2:
Why don't you sit right down and stay a while?
We like the same things and I like your style
It’s not a secret, why do you keep it?
I’m just sitting on the shelf
VERSE 3:
I gotta get you presents,
Let’s make it known
I think you're just so pleasant,
I would like you for my own
SOLO:
(x3)
VERSE 4: (transposes 1 whole step)
Why don't you sit right down and make me smile?
You make me feel like I am just a child
Why do you edit? Just give me credit
I’m just sitting on the shelf
