"Do Not Wait" lyrics

"Do Not Wait"

We were monkeys once
Maybe some of us still
There is too much to say
Do not wait do not wait do not wait
There may not be much time left
Grab your partner by the wrist
There is so much to say
Do not wait do not wait do not wait

There was once a place for all
It is now but a brick wall
Let's put our heads together
And let's bang let's bang let's bang them all
We are wandering through the snow
Makes us wonder where we go
Nothing in our heads but
Emptying the fossils in our bed

Let's put
All our eggs into one basket
And slowly
Ready ourselves for our caskets
Let's put
All our eggs into one basket
And slowly
Ready ourselves for our caskets

We are nothing but good friends
Drinking to oblivion
Open wounds are not for
Talking about they're for pouring on
When we raise a glass for all
Could we not just raise them all
Let's put our heads somewhere
That we might not be with them in the morn

Let's put
All our eggs into one basket
And slowly
Ready ourselves for our caskets
Let's put
All our eggs into one basket
And slowly
Ready ourselves for our caskets

Let's put
All our eggs into one basket
And slowly
Ready ourselves for our caskets
Let's put
All our eggs into one basket
And slowly
Ready ourselves for our caskets

It was a dream I had [?]
When I woke there was nothing to hold
It was a dream I had [?]
When I woke there was nothing to hold
It was a dream I had [?]
When I woke there was nothing to hold
It was a dream I had [?]
When I woke there was nothing to hold
