Lyrics

BE LATE

It's better to be late in this world, than be early in the next,
You've got to take your time, you've got to slow down,
You've got to take your breath

Everybody's talking at the same time,
I can't hear what they're saying,
Everybody's rushing around, they've got to slow down

It's ok to be late,
it's ok to be late , be late
No one wants to be late, be late,

It's better to be safe in this world, than be sorry in the next
You've got to relax, don't worry about time
It'll get you in the end

Everybody's moving at the same time,
They can't see where they're going
Everybody's rushing around, they've got to slow down
Slow right down

It's ok to be late, be late,
It's ok to be late, be late
No one wants to be late, be late,

Time goes by so slowly, Time goes by so fast
Don't let time hold you back

(Don't be late) I got so much i wanna do
(Don't be late) 'aint got time to tie my shoes
(Don't be late) got no time too stop and stare
(Don't be late) at all those ladies over there
(Don't be late) got no time
(Don't be late) i don't wanna be late
(Don't be late) i don't wanna be late
