Story behind the song
I wanted to write a funny song, so I thought of a topic one of my friends kept complaining to me about - which was people cutting her off. From there it developed into how much it sucks to be late, then i twisted it and turned it into this. Great song!
Lyrics
"You're late!"
Beat: Pain Pills by Rock It Prodcutions
[verse 1:]
Dreamland where the wildest things can happen
where ya raise your hands and start ta get to clappin
but its interrupted by a shrill set of beeps
dreams are like guacamole just let it keep
can't get outta bed close your eyes for a second
waking up in a panic you just neglected it
you'll be late to work again if you don't hurry
ya get soap in your eyes and your vision gets blurry
time to brush your teeth but where is the brush
searchin so fast but you know youre in a rush
you spot it by the toilet it doesnt look clean
usin your finger hopin today you're not seen
snatch up a cinamon roll and blaze out the door
it's so hard to see - your eyes are really sore
now you're on your way, but so is the rest of town
then some guy cuts you off and slows down
[Chorus:]
Rush, Rush, just to get out the door!
in the morning it's all that you can ask for!
Dash, Dash, the little clock decides your fate!
you're late, you're late, you're late, you're late!
[verse 2:]
but time is a factor and so is finesse
on the phone with someone important and gettin stressed
my interviews comin up - dont have time to shower
put a puffy sweater on so i dont smell sour
hanging up the phone and the doorbell rings
there's only one thing that all of this can mean
i should've asked for the interview a little later!
so i tell them to come back when im thinkin straighter
so im grabbin my keys and gettin ready to leave
opening the door something happened i cant believe
my dog bolted out the door and down the street
as i thought, "that little jerk, what a cheat!"
it's a refined art to be as late as me
with poor planning you'll never see me there early
i know it seems strange but im the first to leave
this has taken me such a long time to acheive
[Chorus:]
[verse 3:]
im the most reliable you can count on me
but only if you count on me being late not early
late to airports, haircuts, appointments
react, attack, pay rent, sporting events
when you're in a huge hurry it never fails
because someone who's not.. always prevails
so get movin, drive really fast and go
it's not about the people that ya happen ta know
or why none of your friends will ever give ya a ride
hey im not mad - i am on your side
the passanger side, just lettin you drive
paitently waiting till our destination arrives
giving gas money in the form of hugs n kisses
while the misses sits there and reminices
okay i dont like to be late but its not fair
be on time if mom didnt have to drive me everywhere
(PAUSE)
[Chorus:]
