"Always Late" lyrics
"Always Late"
Hello honey, I just missed the train
My watch must have stopped I guess
Dinner is cold and the kids are asleep
I didn't mean to get you out of bed
Always late (always late)
Yes, it's always the same
Procrastination is my middle name
But the rest of the world is ahead of the game
And that's why I'm always late
Won't somebody give me a ride
I've been out of gas for hours
My mother-in-law's flying in from the coast
She's probably in an ambulance by now
Always late (always late)
Yes, it's always the same
Procrastination is my middle name
But the rest of the world is ahead of the game
And that's why I'm always late
Willie, it's time to get up
Willie, you get out of that bed
You'll be late for work again
Willie, Willie!
Come on honey, give me a chance
I promise to mend my ways
Let's go out for an anniversary dance
You say our anniversary's yesterday?
Always late (always late)
Yes, it's always the same
Procrastination is my middle name
But the rest of the world is ahead of the game
And that's why I'm always late

You must have been all of a thousand feet tall

I will
And though you say you may love me never
You will

You shouldn't be denied, my love
You'll end up by my side
Just wait and see me

Where did you go?
I was searchin' (Searchin') on a one-way street
I was hopin' (Hopin') for a chance to meet
I was waitin' for the operator on the line

The Tubes - "The Monkey Time" Now there's a place right across town
Whenever you're ready
Where the people gather 'round

You feel a groove comin' on its way
