What does it mean

_ You throw me a lame "wait *** out"_

It's from a song called "Afraid of Noting"
  

Top answer

g: The first ten minutes of the film are boring - you have to wait it out. After that the action really starts. The **** in the song's phrase just emphasises that the waiting part is not going to be enjoyable My guess is that the singer wants a serious relationship with the person that she is singing to, but the person is making her wait because right now is a bad time.

  • The singer finds that excuse lame - she doesn't accept it.
  • The relationship that she has in mind is one in which they will be 'afraid of nothing' - so there is nothing to wait for Dave

Hi

To wait something out is to put up with it, in the hope that what comes after will be better

E.g: The first ten minutes of the film are boring - you have to wait it out. After that the action really starts.

The **** in the song's phrase just emphasises that the waiting part is not going to be enjoyable

My guess is that the singer wants a serious relationship
