I've been tryin' to get to you for a long time 'Cause constantly you been on my mind I was thinkin' about a shortcut I could take But it seems like I made a mistake
But I was wrong Ooh, took too long I got caught in the rush hour Then fellas 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 (oh, too crowded) So, so, so crowded (oh, too crowded)
Now there's too many ahead of me They're all tryin' to get in front of me I thought that I could find a clear road ahead But I found stop lights instead
But I was wrong Baby, took too long I got caught in the rush hour Then fellas 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) (Oh, too crowded)
