I've been tryin'
To get to you
For a long time

'Cause constantly
You been on my mind


I was thinkin'
'Bout a shortcut
I could take

But it seems like
I made a mistake


Well, I was wrong
Ooh, took too long
I got caught in the rush hour

The fellow started to shower
You with love and affection
Now you won't look in my direction


On the expressway to your heart
That expressway, not the best way


At five o'clock
It's much too crowded

(Too crowded)
It was much too crowded
(Too crowded)

So crowded
(Too crowded)
It was much too crowded

Oh yeah
(Ooh, too crowded)
So, so crowded

(Ooh, too crowded)

There's too many ahead of me

They're all tryin'
Get in front of me
I thought I could find

A clear road ahead
But I found
Stoplights instead


I was wrong
Baby, took too long

I got caught in the rush hour
The fellow started to shower
You with love and affection

Come on, look in my direction

On the expressway to your heart

That expressway, not the best way

At five o'clock

It's much too crowded
(Too crowded)
Much too crowded

(Too crowded)
So crowded
(Too crowded)

No room for me
Oh, too crowded
(Too crowded)

Oh, too crowded
