Lyrics

Usin' the phone booth Makin' a few calls Doodlin' weird things Usin' the booth walls, yeah Got me a big date Waitin' for my cap Puttin' his fine on So he can look dap I enjoy procrastinatin' 'Cause I'm busy while I'm waitin' Doodlin' away Sittin' and dinin' Dinner beginnin' Started designin' Usin' the linen Talkin' to my man Doodlin' my bit Waiter got salty Told me to please quit Told the waiter, don't be dizzy Can't you see I'm very busy? Doodlin' away Do, doodle all day Said the waiter in his way Do you doodle all night? Told the waiter he was right In your doodlin' way That's the way I'm gonna stay Are you thinkin' things right? Doodlin' sheds a lot of light I don't know what to do Ain't nothing you can do With old doodlin' you Doodlin's all I want to do That's for true! Why does every single thing I see, look exactly like a doodle to me? If I ever had a doubt What life is all about I get my pencil out and then commence to doodlin' And I find it so relaxing 'Specially when I feel that life is really taxing Those weird designs They only show what's goin' on in weirdy minds 'Cause when you doodle then your noodle's flyin' high Everything little thing that you write, just conceive, or it might be a thought That you caption while coppin' a wink Doodlin' takes you beyond what you see Then you draw what you think, yeah I'd feel so lost without my doodlin' Doodlin' really helps me ease my mind I'd be tempest-tossed without my doodlin' When I'm doodlin' there's one thing I find Truly, I really, really, really, truly wanna figure out What my doodlin's all about Later the waiter Had me arrested Took me to Bellevue Where I was tested Had me a doctor Brought me my noodle For it was half done Taught him to doodle Showed him hidden thoughts that linger Find an outlet through your finger Doodlin' away Doctor was real nice Told me to be cool Looked at the waiter Called him a real fool Looked at my baby Told him to feel free Got him to doodlin' So he could bug me When he put his arms around me Quite to his surprise, he found me Doodlin' away We just doodle again
