Lyrics
When You Snooze You Lose
© May 2006, Rev Feb 2007, Rebecca Dale Peaden (BMI)/Marchetti (BMI)
V1
Just your average schmoozers in Hooter's
Wishin' that waitress'd be part of their future
When to their surprise - she asked for a ride
And Roy jumped on that like a dog on a bone
Said I'll give you a lift at the end of your shift
And went to the men's room to take out his dip
As he thought about his good luck
His zipper got stuck she left with Joe in his truck
Chorus:
When you snooze you lose
That's the way it is
One blink of an eye
In this world we live in
You've lost out to the other guy
Yea, you can kiss it all goodbye
Cause while you’re' a dreaming
Someone’s making their move
When you snooze you lose
V2
Roy was on his way to the NASCAR race
With some good ole girls from the roadside cafe
A quarter mile to the parking lot - well guess what
Dont'cha know his RV ran hot
The girls slammed shots in their halter tops
While he hitched a ride to a local parts shop
When along came Earnhardt's pit crew
The girls left with them taking his homebrew
Chorus:
When you snooze you lose
That's the way it is
One blink of an eye
In this world we live in
You've lost out to the other guy
Yea, you can kiss it all goodbye
Cause while you’re' a dreaming
Someone’s making their move
When you snooze you lose
V3
Tired of losin out - Roy took a different route
Had a dating service be his scout
While video tapein' - he couldn't stop shakin
Said "Ain't no need in lyin' or fakin'
You can see I ain't too pretty or witty
But this heart of gold is yours while we grow old
I'll put you way up high on a pedestal
And when it comes to love - well, I'm incredible"
Chorus:
When you snooze you lose
That's the way it is
One blink of an eye
In this world we live in
You've lost out to the other guy
Yea, you can kiss it all goodbye
Cause while you’re' a dreaming
Someone’s making their move
When you snooze you lose
Bridge:
They been going out for about a year now
And next week he'll be tieing the knot
With the prettiest girl in the world
- Ole Joe's Hooter's girl
Chorus:
When you snooze you lose
That's the way it is
One blink of an eye
In this world we live in
You've lost out to the other guy
Yea, you can kiss it all goodbye
Cause while you’re' a dreaming
Someone’s making their move
When you snooze you lose
